Challenge by Choice

All participants will be set a variety of challenges throughout the session that range in complexity and height. We believe that everyone must enjoy their experience as well as be challenged by it. To achieve this, individuals consider the various challenges and choose what they want to try and how high they wish to go. No pressure will be placed upon individuals to perform. All instructors are trained to ensure that you will not go beyond your own physical or emotional boundaries.

The Challenges

Within the ropes course area, over 50 challenges are situated in a picturesque forest, surrounded by rhododendron bushes. Key challenges are selected for each group depending upon age, physical ability and your objectives for the session. Types of challenges include:

Zip Wire

Low Elements

High Elements

Cows Tail Course

High Team Elements

Low Ropes Challenge Course

However the maximum permitted is 1:10 for high ropes and 1:12 for low ropes. If you choose to pay for additional instructors, you will be able to experience more elements during the session.
