2 . Canyoning

The sports of canyoning (蹦谷) explore the high-energy environment where water meets rock on the coast. Protected by wetsuits and helmets, people jump from cliffs and waterfalls and discover caves that would not normally be arrived at.

It was first done in the U.K. by TYF Adventure (01437 721611, www.tyf.com) and several thousand people jump from the cliffs near St David’s each year. A half day canyoning trip costs ￡50 (￡30 for children under 16).

Diving

Diving is not popular with British people. The difficulties of wild waters are greater because the water is colder and not clear enough, but the coasts of Cornwall, Wales and Scotland have some of the best diving in the world.

The British Sub Aqua Club (0870 112 9133, www.bsac.com) and the Professional Association of Diving Instructors (01580 819688, www.padi.com) run courses teaching the important skills.

Surfing

The best surfing places in the UK are on the southwest coast where it is warmer, especially in Cornwall. The best time of year to surf in the UK is late summer and autumn.

The British Surfing Association (01479 861256, www.britsurf.co.uk) has a list of famous surf schools around the country.

Rock climbing

The most popular natural rocks in Britain include the Peak District, the Lake District, while large areas of Scotland are a climber’s ideal place. Climbing courses and climbing walls can be found on the website of the British Mountaineering Council (0870 010 4878, www.thebmc.co.uk).

6 . Country Walks

Hope Village

A leisurely（悠闲的）way to spend an hour or two is by visiting the busy village of Hope with its lovely country gardens. A gentle walk towards the hills will soon bring you to excellent views.

Country Park

The Lime House here attracts thousands of visitors, but this is a pleasant walk away from the crowds, through parkland, woods and up onto the hills. Popular with bird-watchers. The house was built in 1570.

Cornford

This is an easy walk through a little-known valley. See the 200-year-old buildings from the cloth-making industry which now stand empty.

Devonshire Park

Allow at least half a day, or make it a full day by visiting the adventure playground and farmyard. Guided walks are available for small groups.

Howden Lake

This two-hour walk attracts thousands of visitors. Children can go sailing on the lake with trainers.

This walk is certainly for very fit walkers only—the paths get very slippery (滑的）after rain. Allow six hours and start early. You're unlikely to meet another person all day. Be sure to pack food - you'll be up on the hilltops all day.

This is an exciting walk along easy paths, which are crowded at weekends. And it's a popular place for family picnics. Guided walks start from the nearby village and visit 800-year-old woodland.
