It is up to you - mix and match! Be active and adventurous as you like – try something different . We run these daily activity days from May - September for groups of younger folk who aspire to "have a go" at various adventure sports. These are days to teach you the basic skills to get a feel for your chosen activity in safe, controlled environment. The laughs, chat and fun come free!

You can choose from a 3 hour adrenalin pumping session in any one of the activities listed above – but see OUR PRICES LIST  for as little as £ 26.50 per day for Primary school age or £28.75 for Secondary school age . Or, if you think you’re up to it, you could try  2 in a day for only £ 30.75 / 33.00 respectively.

All you need to bring is a complete change of clothes, towel and shoes in case you get wet canoeing and something warm and waterproof. A spare fleece, warm hat and gloves are not a bad idea. It’s essential to have some clothing with long sleeves, trousers (preferably not jeans)and a pair of thick gloves. You will also need to bring your own packed lunch.

Prices include hire, qualified instruction & safety gear for beginners for approximately a minimum of 6 hours per day or 2 ½ - 3 hour half day sessions.  (Usually dependent on a minimum of 3 persons booking). All prices per person unless stated otherwise. Pre booking is preferred and essential at busy time of the year.

We do not do half days for rock climbing and hill walking activities unless for a group booking of a minimum of 4 persons is made, when we can arrange alternative days to suit your requirements).

All sessions are weather dependent. Every effort will be made to accommodate your booking but should conditions be such that we cannot run your session we will offer an alternative activity.
