Professional instructors run each element and the programme is designed to operate in all weather, making it a concentrated hit of height and adrenaline for participants aged seven and up.

Highlights

Outing Highlights

THE ZIP LINE

One long run, one big photo

A supervised climb to the launch platform, full attachment to the line and a single long, camera‑ready descent make the zip line accessible and rewarding for a wide range of ages and abilities.

THE LEAP

Leap of Faith trapeze — tailor how far you go

After climbing a pole with a safety line, participants stand on a wooden platform and jump for a trapeze bar. Instructors can position the bar as close or as far as each person dares, allowing the challenge to be scaled to the individual.

THE ABSEIL

Abseil like a pro from the climbing wall

You first climb a ladder to an access platform on the purpose‑built climbing wall, then descend the outside of the building under instructor supervision using provided safety kit.

What the day feels like

What the two‑hour session feels like

The session unfolds as three discrete aerial challenges—each taught and belayed by professional instructors—so groups move quickly from one height‑based exercise to the next. It’s an off‑ground loop of climb, secure and commit: ascend to a platform, clip in, and either sprint down a zip line, launch for a trapeze bar or lower yourself down the face of a climbing wall. The centre runs the activities in all weather and provides all safety equipment and instruction.
