Your team will be provided with maps & clues and receive a detailed brief on map reading and the local area before setting off on their challenge. The task is to locate the markers set out for your team and come up with the correct answers within the given time. This can be set out as a big team effort or a competition.

Canoeing is an ancient team orientated form of transport – you will get nowhere without your partner pulling his or her weight! Communication is key when it comes to turning the boat around, increasing your speed or stopping. Enjoy a lovely journey around a beautiful lake at the same time.

This activity is adrenaline at its best! It combines water, height, remoteness, tight squeezes – and leaves the team utterly reliant on each other’s support. Don’t underestimate the power of a shared adventure and fears overcome as a team. Everyone will have a story to tell for months to come.

Caving and mining are activities for the most adventurous of teams, challenging a fear at the very heart: being underground with tons of rock and soil above you and only a head torch to light the passages. Our novice level mines do not require any prior knowledge of the activity – what an adventure it is!
