These fun events are available for individuals on various dates throughout the year or for group bookings of from 10 to 16 people.  Groups booking can be either over a weekend or midweek and the activities can be tailored specifically to meet your requirements.  Please contact us and ask for the chief instructor if you would like to discuss an event.

Children under 18 may only participate if accompanied by a parent or legal guardian.

These very popular weekend breaks are especially suitable for those who are new to adventure sports and would simply like to try their hand at as many activities as possible on a weekend with a difference. 

If you are travelling to The Dales from far away you may wish to arrive on Thursday event (activities start around 10-30am on Friday). We can arrange (cost around £30) for you to stay in the hotel on Thursday night.  Please contact us for more information if you want to arrive early.

There is still only so much we can cram in to an action-packed weekend.   Over each weekend (subject to weather conditions) we will try and offer our standard activities such as Caving, Climbing & Abseiling. Of course we still have the other favourites such as Waterfall Ascents, Wilderness Swimming, plus face and body painting, inter-team challenges and shooting - and anything else we (or you) can think of. 

This said, if there is anything else that you would like to try, simply see one of the instructors when you arrive, if it’s possible, we will give it a go.

 

 

Top Tip.  
Take your camera as your mates (or even "you") will never believe what you have done.

Plain speaking
You do not have to participate in any of the activities if you don’t want to. But, we have found that people who do at least have a go at everything, gain the most from the weekend. If you fancy a weekend lazing around on a sun-bed, this type of holiday may not be ideal ?
All activities are subject to the weather. As an example, if it has been raining heavily we can not go caving. On the other end of the scale, if it has not rained for a while, there simply won’t be any waterfalls to climb. We will just have to wait and see.

We supply ALL equipment.  You will need to bring only some loose clothing and a pair of wellies (these can be hired from a local shop for around £1).

You will discover parts of Britain you'll never find in any guide books. The photo to the right was taken at Gibbs Cauldron.  We have been there "many" time and still never seen it mentioned in any guide books.

We found that the one single activity that many people are doubtful about when they arrive is the main one they rave about enjoying  when they leave.  Caving is great fun - what else can we say.  In the cave they we visit there are "no" tight squeezes or big drops.

Oh - you're going to get wet and covered in mud, but what the heck - it's not mean to be clean.

Don't worry though it's not about franticly leaping around the place.  There is still time for the odd "barby" by a riverside camp fire. -->

 

<--  Becky - Instructor


 

We shoot targets "not" animals.

Abseiling is just "fun" thats why we do it

And another thing - wine tasting.  We lets just say we do it slightly different.  We don't spit it out. (what a waste!!)

But this does cause a few "problems" Hmmmmm? Drinking games that involve lipstick-what can we say
 


 

Oh yes,  if the instructor tells you that you're going for a "walk" and then starts handing out ropes and helmets you'll understand why this is called a multi "activity" weekend.
You call THIS a "walk" Ok where's the path gone "Oh - My - God" It looks better that way
See you in the Dales
