LAKE DISTRICT ADVENTURE WEEKENDS
Fancy leaving the towns and cities behind and come to visit the beautiful National Parks of England and Wales? For a whole weekend we will be running Adventure Training including mountain walking, mountain biking, rock climbing and abseiling experiences. The weekend will be both a stress relieving and enjoyable atmosphere, and will provide you with an opportunity to learn some practical and theoretical knowledge regarding the activities you will undertake. These weekends are sure to be huge amounts of fun and we would love you to join us!
“Excellent weekend, brilliantly organised and professionally run. Definitely would recommend.”
