Are the activities suitable for all abilities? 

Outdoor activities are of a demanding nature, physically and mentally.  The High Ropes course is demanding, but varying fitness levels complete the easier course without dramas!  Though you may ache for a few days after!Climbing can be more suited to those with reoccurring injuries, as the main forces can be directed to the lower body. 

How long do activities last? 

Approximately:High Ropes – 1.5 hours Climbing – 1 hour Leap of Faith – 1 hour Coasteering – Half a day Kayaking – Half a day 

Do we have to book? 

We endeavour to ensure that all participants start their chosen activity within 20 minutes of arriving.  We do however only have set number of places on each activity at any one time.  We strongly advise groups of 6 or more to call to ascertain a time slot suitable, to ensure all members can complete activities together.

What must I wear?
