Sessions are tailored to meet the individuals strength, size and to raise their self esteem.
Crossbows are also available, these can be easily used from a standing or seated position.
Get ready to enjoy the thrill of flinging an axe at a target in the great outdoors, as you aim for the all-important bullseye (it's harder than it sounds!). The key to success is technique rather than strength, and our qualified instructors will be on-hand to provide tips and support.
As your session progresses, we'll introduce games and challenges, either working as a team or going solo. It's the perfect way to learn a new skill and have loads of fun. Ready, set, throw!

Our purpose built 11m climbing tower could just be what you are looking for. The tower has an all ability climbing wall, providing routes for both experienced climbers and those with little or no climbing experience.
This is an adrenalin fuelled experience without having to reach great heights, which will test your strength and endurance.
Specialist equipment available for those with disabilities
The aim of the game is to build a tower as high as possible.
The crate stack involves the whole team as they must work effectively together to achieve their goal. Members of your team on the ground are involved in passing crates up to the people building the tower, who are harnessed in and wearing safety hats. When the tower topples those building will be lowered to the ground.
This activity will improve self esteem, confidence, safety awareness, problem solving and leave you with a great feeling of achievement.
Unleash your inner Fencer! Fencing is a great way to build focus, accuracy and lightning-fast reflexes. It is exciting and active, where speed and precision are much more important than strength. The sessions consist of warm up games, blade work and footwork before supervised sparring in groups according to ability and age/size. Games are used not only for general fitness and agility but also to teach quick thinking and fast reactions. We provide premium equipment which is perfectly safe in even the most enthusiastic of hands. Trust us when we say that fencing is a sport you have to experience to truly understand. The rush of landing the perfect touch against your opponent, the chess-like strategy of each bout, as well as plenty of sword fighting!
Gladiator ready, Three, Two, One, go! Are you brave enough to take on our gladiator challenge?
Belayed by their peers, participants try to climb to the top of the Gladiator course. Cargo net, ladders, tyres, different challenges at different heights make this a real test all of your climbing skills. Once mastered why not take on a contender in a race to the top!
This is teamwork at its finest.
Your challenge, should you choose to accept!, is to try and get four people up a "telegraph pole" to stand on the platform at the top.
This is an excellent exercise for groups of up to 12 people to achieve. Whilst four people are trying to access the platform the rest of the group control their safety ropes.
Your group will need good cooperation, communications and trust to complete this task and exceed your own and the groups expectations.

An absolute classic of a team building activity, this one is harder than it looks and you’ll have to get creative if you want to climb to the top. The higher the teams get, the further apart the rungs on the ladder become!
With up to four climbers, teams must work together to ascend the structure, lifting and climbing on each other to get as high as they can. This is a very physical activity but ultimately very rewarding.

With this activity, your group will be given tips on how to adequately build a shelter from resources found within the woodland, that will protect them from the elements.
A good shelter is important on several fronts, not only does it shield you from the elements, it can also hide you from wildlife intruders and provide the psychological comfort needed to remain calm if you find yourself in a survival situation.
This activity is great for team work, planning, communication and strategy thinking.
