Activities on the water include kayaking, canoeing, raft building, paddleboarding, sailing and dragon boating as well as our fantastic high ropes facility which offers high in the sky activities from climbing, abseiling, team challenges and ariel obstacle course. We also provide land-based activities ranging from archery, problem solving challenges, and bush craft activities.

Adventure Hub

Based at Baildon Recreation Centre we take advantage of being a stone’s throw from Shipley Glen with a number of amazing bike trails around the area for both novice riders and those looking for a bit more adventure along with opportunities for climbing, abseiling, archery, local walks, and bushcraft activities.

Adventure Outreach

A large part of our outdoor services are our outreach programmes. We have a fully mobile resource of instructors delivering activities on school sites, in local parks and open countryside areas. We provide a mobile climbing tower that can be utilised on your grounds for school events and galas, kayaking on local canals, climbing at cow and calf rocks, hill walking around the Bradford and Calder valleys, to activities further afield ranging from kayaking, mountain biking, walking, caving and gorge scrambling in the Lake District and Yorkshire Dales.

Flexibility with our programmes enables you to easily take your students learning outside the classroom. Whether you want to create long lasting memories with an enriching adventure packed day, a programme linking into elements of your curriculum or course modules or a day looking at nurturing teamwork and personal development we can help you.
