Overview:
Get ready for a full day of fun-fuelled activities that'll squeeze the most out of your daylight hours. With the choice of 2 activities, one in a 3 hour morning slot and one in a 3 hour afternoon slot, your day will be filled to the brim with action and adventure.

Choose any 2 activities:

Raft Building:
Get your survival instincts to kick in as you are set the task of constructing and racing your very own raft. Teams will compete against each other as they test the buoyancy of their water vessels and have their race efforts timed. Will you sink or swim? There's only one way to find out!

Canyoning:
Canyoning is a high-adrenaline activity that'll satisfy your thirst for adventure. Scrambling and climbing through a rocky river, you'll be fearlessly sliding and jumping into plunge pools in a river gorge. Jumping from cliff edges and abseiling down waterfalls should see your adrenaline glands well and truly knackered. Awesome.

Canoeing:
These two man canoes are completely open topped similar to the ones used by Indians or Canadian Trappers. You and a partner will need to get coordinated in order to steer and paddle effectively. During the day you will play lots of games and learn a number of different paddle strokes used in the sport.

Kayaking:
The Eskimo's preferred means of water travel, these single person, closed in, kayaks are great fun. Learn to paddle and steer before engaging in a wet water based competition against your friends. These thing have a mind of their own and remaining upright may not be a luxury which you can afford to count on!

Gorge Scrambling:
A top activity for the adventurous who are excited by the thought of clambering over rocks, climbing through wet crevices and jumping into plunge pools. You'll need to have a basic level of fitness but the guide will look after you and tailor the activity to match the capabilities of the group.

Abseiling:
Take your pick from low, tame crags up to high-adrenaline cliff faces and get yourself strapped in. Once shown the best descending techniques, you'll be left to bounce off the rockface, lowering yourself jubilantly to the ground below. Vertigo suffers sling your hook, those with a sense of adventure get involved!

Climbing:
These rockfaces offer a great challenge. After getting some hot tips on climbing techniques and having a practice at low level, participants pair up within the teams with a climber and a "belayer". The climber scales the wall to get maximum points for height achieved while trusting the belayer to keep them on that rope. 

Clay pigeon Shooting:
Ever fancied getting your hands on a shotgun, setting your sights down the shiny double-barrel and scratching that itchy trigger finger of yours? Yes? We thought so! What better way to satisfy the urge than blasting a clay pigeon to smithereens, catching a victorious waft of the smoking barrels and reloading to unleash more destruction on yet another unsuspecting ceramic projectile. Qualified instructors will help you maximise the carnage inflicted on your clays

Archery:
Pick up a bow and arrow, take aim and shoot 2 foot wide of the target to the heckling jeers of your mates. With steady handedness a prerequisite, those who've had a heavy one the night before will be pulling their arrows from the dirt.

Mountain Biking:
A very popular activity for anyone who can already ride a bike and has a reasonable level of fitness. The ride will be over rough terrain with some very fast sections of downhill biking and some very slow technical downhill sections demanding your every care and attention. The rides will be tailored to meet the needs of the group accordingly.

Included:
- Full body wetsuit, life vest and crash helmet for all water based activities
- Qualified Instructors for all activities

Duration:
- Full day
- 3 hour activity in the morning and a 3 hour activity in the afternoon

Overview:
It's very hard to beat a good day at the races and if you win, it's even better.

The atmosphere at a race track is always amazing whether you're dressed in your Sunday best in the members' enclosure sipping bubbly or staying casual and snacking on hotdogs all day.

Those that think they know a thing or two can study the form and chew their pencils whilst the others can pick on the funniest name or the best coloured silks. Horse racing covers all the bases and has something for everyone.

Includes:
 - Ticket entry to the races

Onwards and upwards:
Although it was very confusing trying to figure out quite just what Rocky Balboa was doing scaling mountains and what had happened to his fighting career, Cliffhanger reminded us all that climbing is cool.

Whilst you won't be swinging one-handed from a cliff face sneering and slurring your words, these rockfaces offer a great challenge. After getting some hot tips on climbing techniques and having a practice at low level, participants pair up within the teams with a climber and a "belayer". The climber scales the wall to get maximum points for height achieved while trusting the belayer to keep them on that rope. Don't worry; a qualified instructor will be watching like a hawk.

Excellent fun incorporating some good old fashioned exercise, this should make you feel better about the 20 odd beers followed by the soggy kebab you're bound to encounter in the early hours.

Duration:
- Full day (includes 2 x 3 hour activity sessions and a packed lunch)

Notes:
We can also run indoor climbing sessions depending on the weather conditions and needs of the group.

Get pedalling:
Mountain biking is a very popular activity for anyone who can already ride a bike and has a reasonable level of fitness. A mountain biking session would usually consist of a quick look at your personal riding skills and a short introduction to some new skills that will be useful on a ride.

The ride would then be over rough terrain with some very fast sections of downhill biking and some very slow technical downhill sections demanding your every care and attention. The rides will be tailored to meet the needs of the group accordingly.

Duration:
- Full day (includes 2 x 3 hour activity sessions and a packed lunch)

Overview:
The Eskimo's preferred means of water travel, these single person, closed in, kayaks are great fun. Learn to paddle and steer before engaging in a wet water based competition against your friends. These thing have a mind of their own and remaining upright may not be a luxury which you can afford to count on!

Bullseye!
Robin Hood was cool (no, not the Kevin Costner version) and William Tell was only a Granny Smith away from lodging an arrow through his son's noggin. With heroes like this in England's rich history who wouldn't want to pick up a bow and arrow, take aim and shoot 2 foot wide of the target to the heckling jeers of their compadres. With steady handedness a prerequisite, those who've had a heavy one the night before will be pulling their arrows from the dirt.

Luckily you'll have competition standard bows to use and instructors to help you to get to grips with them so you might just nail that bullseye. After a short practice it's competition time with the victor doubtlessly thrusting his bow skyward in jubilation, cheering and grunting like a Neanderthal who's just floored a Sabretooth on the hunt.

Duration:
- Full day (includes 2 x 3 hour activity sessions and a packed lunch)

Going down:
With plenty of choice for all members of the group ranging from the pansies to the real men you'll all love a bit of abseiling. Take your pick from low, tame crags up to high-adrenaline cliff faces and get yourself strapped in.

Once shown the best descending techniques, you'll be left to bounce off the rockface, lowering yourself jubilantly to the ground below. Vertigo suffers sling your hook, those with a sense of adventure get involved!

Duration:
- Full day (includes 2 x 3 hour activity sessions and a packed lunch)

 

Jump!
For those of you who fancy something a bit more strenuous and rewarding than the average stag-do fare, take to the countryside and try your hands at the extreme sport of gorge walking.

Don't be fooled by the name, your 'walk' will certainly not be a gentle stroll! You'll be climbing, scrambling, swimming in rockpools and jumping into plungepools. You do need a basic level of fitness but the guides will look after you and tailor the walk to match the capabilities of the group

Duration:
- Activity approx 3 hours

Adventure time:
Explore a subterranean world of wonder in this intricate network of Cumbrian caves. Tailored to the wants and needs of each individual group, you'll be wandering through spectacular caverns, squeezing through gaps and crawling through tunnels deep underground. Discover the rocky world beneath your feet in this activity for the real adventure-seekers.

Duration:
Approx  3 hours

Paddles to the ready!
These two man canoes are completely open topped similar to the ones used by Indians or Canadian Trappers. You and a partner will need to get coordinated in order to steer and paddle effectively. If your compadre fancies himself as a bit of a joker, you'll be at his mercy as a few well timed rocks could send you tumbling into the wet.

You'll skim along a calm lake with stops at a few small islands where you can have a quick dip if you fancy it. You'll participate in some fun games too so you'll definitely get the chance to soak your pals and receive a soaking!

Duration:
- Activity approx 3 hours

Overview:
The Instructors take pride in introducing novices to this exciting sport, with the aim of making you a top marksman by the end of the session (well able to hit the thing anyway).

You will start with basic clay shooting to gain confidence and improve your technique, then progress to a competition on three different stands where the traps are varied, some throwing clays towards you, some away and some across.

Licences are not needed, just wear suitable clothing for the time of year, and flat shoes please.

Overview:
Ever fancied getting your hands on a shotgun, setting your sights down the shiny double-barrel and scratching that itchy trigger finger of yours? Yes? We thought so! What better way to satisfy the urge than blasting a clay pigeon to smithereens, catching a victorious waft of the smoking barrels and reloading to unleash more destruction on yet another unsuspecting ceramic projectile.

Experienced instructors will demonstrate to your group how to use a shotgun safely and accurately. The clay pigeon traps are positioned to accommodate all levels of experience and simulate a variety of specific games.

This is a great opportunity to enjoy the country air and smoke a few clays, by the end of the session hopefully you should be nailing the clays more often than not...you'll have a blast!

Overview:
Get high in the forest with a thrilling high ropes session. Set deep in the Moor Valley this is a brilliant setting for you to face your fears and swing through the trees like Tarzan.

After being kitted out in all of the essential equipment and a full safety briefing from the instructors, it'll be time to head for the trees. You'll tackle a course of over 30 hanging rope bridges, scramble nets and zip slides which are up to 30ft off the forest floor. You can also have a go on one of the few tree zip lines in the country.

If you are a bit nervous about heights our advice is simple; clear your mind and focus on what is in front of you. Whatever you do don't think about slipping over and you falling head first to your death*. 

Included:
- Briefing and guidance from qualified instructors
- All safety equipment

*This won't happen as you'll be attached by a safety harness at all times so at worst you'll swing in the air for a few seconds before being pulled to safety. Mong.
