An exclusive aerial journey

The Kelpies Experience is the first ever guided aerial exploration of the world largest equine sculptures. Embark on an exhilarating climb to the horses mouth via a network of cables, ladders and suspended platforms.  Then, feel the thrill as you descend with a free-hanging abseil or the breathtaking Quick Flight rope drop! Climb inside these iconic sculptures and uncover the history and stories behind this magnificent artwork.

Be a Harmeny Hero

This is the ultimate way to explore The Kelpies, all whilst raising funds to ensure children who have had some of the hardest starts in life get the opportunities and support they need to unlock their potential.

All we ask is that you commit to raise a minimum of £250 in sponsorship to take part. All funds you raise will fund additional activities, therapies and opportunities for our children and young people. Your support will help our young people to rediscover their childhood, re-engage with their learning and develop vital skills for life and work.

What’s involved?

The Kelpies Experience involves climbing 25 meters to the mouth of the Kelpies using a series of seven ladders, cables crossing, suspended platforms, nets and aerial course features before descending back down to ground level either by abseil or a quick flight device (an automatic rope based descending device that provides an initial ‘free fall’ experience before lowering to the ground). The Kelpies Experience is mentally and physically challenging with high levels of height exposure, a requirement to climb ladders, crawl, crouch and walk across uneven and sloped terrain.

Before committing to the challenge please read the Rules of Participation and Participant Agreement. FAQs are also available here.
