Corporate Multi Activity Prgrammes
GORGE SCRAMBLE ASSAULT
A fun team challenge exploring the open countryside, forests,
rocks and rivers. As an individual you will have to overcome any
fears of balancing and climbing across large water filled gaps,
over streams and as a team you will need to encourage and
support each other to complete the course.
Building your team work.
STREAM SCRAMBLE CHALLENGE
You will descend down a steep wet rocky waterfall with your
instructor and your peers, working as a tight unit to help
protect and support each other over rough terrain.
This is true team work.
ROCK WEASEL MAZE & BOULDERDASH
Under the watchful eye of your instructor you will go
under ground and explore a labyrinth of rock maze type
features, squeezing over, under and around obstacles. Each
client will be given individual tasks to perform at their own
ability. You will not get stuck, we promise, it’s a fun ice breaker.
ADVENTURE ORIENTEERING CHALLENGE
A total fun enjoyable experience, using a map, compass and
with a guide you will follow a clue sheet and attempt to locate
and recover the lost markers in our very own competition
course. This promotes team work skills and our radios develop
communication skills between different dept sections much like
a phone in the work place, it’s highly competitive between the
teams. It’s brilliant fun and tires you all out.
WALKING IN WILD PLACES
A team challenge over hills, crags or down steep valley’s you’ll
walk with our guides for safety and help you explore and search
out the treasures of the peaks. Navigation skills, map, compass
and survival techniques will be covered including shelters,
weather, climates etc. It’s detailed and learning focused - it will
really get you motivated and bring out your leadership skills.
SNAKES ‘N’ LADDERS
A challenging extreme activity scaling a very long chunky rope
to reach a high marker and earn team points whilst swinging
and swaying over a massive exposed drop, either blind folded
or not. This is an utterly inspiring individual challenge but you
will need your team behind you. You can either race each other
or time trial against the clock. A very rewarding experience.
LADDER XTREME ASSAULT
This challenge is fun and hard work, perfect as an ice breaker
event. Try climbing a massive electron caving ladder that
constantly swings and sways, around, it’s exhaustingly steep.
Why not try this challenge over water, blindfolded?
This is why it’s called Ladder Xtreme. Good luck!
BUSHCRAFT SURVIVAL
We set the scene/scenario then divide the group into teams,
then work towards a deadline of darkness. Each team will
have to build their shelters, set traps and cook their supplies
to complete the challenge. A perfect
activity set to develop key skills
and learning to work effectively
with new colleagues in testing
environments.
ZIP WIRE CHALLENGE
As a team you will
construct a high ropes
Tyrolean traverse zip wire
across an exposed open
river gorge. To complete the
challenge each team member
must use the zip wire to safely
cross the gorge and earn points. It’s
fun and a perfect opportunity to learn
new skills, work alongside our staff and your peers.
Teamwork at its best.
‘‘Xtreme’’
ADVENTURE CAVES – EXPERIENCE
An awe inspiring underworld adventure trip. You will carefully
descend down a large hole travelling 300ft into the Earth’s core.
Explore the underground stream ways, giant rock formations
and see amazing subterranean world’s most people have never
dared explore. Fully enjoyed by all who dare to take up the
challenge. A must do adventure!
ADVENTURE WALL – EXPERIENCE
Indoor rock climbing, abseiling and bouldering at several
centres with our very own Adventure Wall Limited –Indoor
Climbing Wall Company. Our team of experts will teach and
develop your skills its fun and can be very challenging if you
wish. It promotes physical performance, confidence, trust,
support and problem solving. It’s packed with skills.
ALIEN
VS PREDATOR
– TRACKING
Team
competitions
where
the clients are the aliens and our staff
become the predators. It’s simple, we hunt you, we find you,
we steel your orienteering marker points that you have just
achieved. You will need to use stealth tactics to evade us as we
will give you 15 minutes ‘running man’ then we’re off hot on
your heels. This is totally satisfying and brilliant fun.
ADVENTURE GAMES
We have developed several new adventure games, our most
famous being Alien Vs Predator tracking it allows many new
levels and competitive elements of the activity game.
Alien Vs Predator Challenges:
n Stealth n Mirage n Oasis n Oracle n Fortress
n Escape n Evolve n Evade
We will not explain these new adventure games, you’ll have
to try them out.
MOON LIGHTING EXERCISE
Select your adventure mix of activities or games then meet
our teams at dusk, we will guide, mentor and keep you safe
throughout the night. This is a perfect expedition training
exercise for a charity event or preparation for other sports.
We provide torchlight, safety marshals, guides, first aid and all
other necessary components to assist you.
BIG AIR SWINGS
A scary challenge not for the faint hearted! You’re standing on
the edge of a breathtaking exposed drop, 100ft above a wild fast
moving river. You kick off and dropped to swing down 30ft under
an arch way towards the rumbling water, only the very thin but
secure rope you’re attached to saves you from a soaking. This is
by far the ‘buzz’ activity of our corporate programme, more a
test of nerve than skills.
FOREST XTREME – LOW ROPES
As small divided teams you will help construct and evolve a
series of ground level mini assault courses. Then as the activity
tasks take form all the individual courses will be connected into
one main obstacle challenge. Then individuals will take part in
a blindfold experience travelling around the adventure course in
a time trial race. This is a mini challenge activity only.
You thought it was easy didn’t you?
ADVENTURE SIMULATION
We have learned that if you develop a theme or live scenario
and incorporate our activities into this theme, then clients
respond far greater with more effort, will power and resolve.
Our live motivational team building role play scenarios are:
n Prisoners Vs Wardens n Mountain Rescue Evac Team
n SAS - Are You Tough Enough? n US Bomb Squad
n Alien Vs Predator Tracking n Biohazard Team
n Commando Search/Rescue n AWOL Soldier
n SPY – Mission Impossible n Radioactive Clean-up
n Moonlight Tracking n Born Survivor n Lost Boys
n Mountain Medics n Black Hawk Down
This list is ever growing as we have a very creative think tank
of staff that is always evolving and integrating ideas from their
own experiences and our wealth of knowledge over decades of
experiential learning in education.
