You don't need to be part of a preformed group to come on a Joint Adventures course. Below is a list of summer special days for adults and accompanied children. The cost per session is £20 per person.
Sessions are about 2 to 3 hours long and run from 10.00 until 1.00 and from 2.00pm until 5.00pm.
If you don't find a course date that suits, or you have a
particular enquiry then please
contact us.
We'd love to hear from you. Climbing and Abseiling
available on request.
Abseilers, and Rock Climbers.
If you've got walking
boots use them, otherwise footwear with a treaded sole is best. And wear
plenty of warm layers as the sites are often exposed.
The lightweight waterproof jacket is essential to keep you warm.
Walk backwards over the edge of a steep drop with only a couple of ropes and your composure to keep you safe! If this idea doesn't put you off then read on. Joint Adventures instructors will see that you will get to the bottom safe and sound. Abseiling is a technique used by climbers to return to the bottom of a climb quickly (but not too quickly) and we will show you all you need to know to enjoy this exhilarating challenge. Let us help you organise your sponsored abseil event.
Beginner to improver
This is a 2 day course for those who have little or know experience of boating, and wish to develop skills specific to canoe or kayak. Our aim is to help you develop skills to enable you to undertake short journeys on flat water, and be in good control of your boat. We will also teach you how to be safer on the water so that you may begin to plan your own adventures.
Moving on to white water
This 2 day course is for those who have good boat control on flat water, and wish to develop skills to paddle moving water up to grade 2. The first part of the course will review flat water skills. The rest of the course will involve skill development to include breaking in and out of moving water, surfing small waves, and river reading skills.
Originally meant for people with GPS receivers, Geo-caching is like going on a treasure hunt. Exciting as you home in on your target, and rewarding as you develop your navigational skills. Each cache consists of a waterproof container with note book and pencil, and some little treasures. You arrive at a cache, record your find in a log book, and swap some little treasure. Most caches contain toys or little curiosities. The idea is that people leave something and take something. These items should not include food or other perishable things.
One of our most popular activities. Why not walk up a mountain stream, climb waterfalls, and jump into pools? This activity and is largely about getting wet and having fun. Gorge walking may be done as a half day activity
