Joint Adventures Adventure activities in The Lake District
 

One

or those of us that enjoy adventure activities with our whole family this type of session is for you.  We will provide you with an instructor who is experienced  in working with families in the outdoors.  For these sessions it is best to contact us to discuss your requirements and take advantage of our special family rates. 

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.

Please Take Care.  This is a high level walk.  It is essential that you have a map, compass, and whistle, and that you are proficient in using them.  Click here for an elevation profile. 

Before you set off:

By making the decision to print off or do this Photo Trail you assume all risks involved.  By using this trail you agree to our disclaimer.  To view the disclaimer click the link.

• make sure that you are familiar with the route
• tell someone where you are going and leave route information with details of your group and time of return
• obtain a Weather forecast
• take  warm clothing, food and water sufficient for a longer period of time on the hill.
• When you have returned make sure you tell the people you left the route details with that you are off the hill

Whether you want beautiful views, peace and tranquillity, or help with your navigation, we can help you get the most from your time on the hill.  Hill walking can be tailored to meet your needs and level of experience.  It is available as a full day, half day, or expedition activity.  See our Photo Trails for your own adventure. All of our instructors are fully qualified in the activities they lead.  They have a high level of experience and local knowledge which enables them to turn which ever activity you choose into safe experience you will want to build on.

To comply with the Adventurous Activities Licensing Authority's guidelines, for certain activities children must be accompanied by a parent or guardian.

Kayaking is just one part of Canoe Sport.  There are many branches kayaking, from messing about on the water, to longer kayaking journeys on lakes and rivers.  Kayaking has something for everyone.   See our skills courses for details of British Canoe Union star test courses. Kayaking is available as a half day, full day, or expedition activity. 

Raft building involves teams of people building improvised rafts, from logs and barrels.  It is great fun and can be used to develop interpersonal skills, and team work, or just having fun!  Raft building can be done as a half day session, or combined with other team building activities to form a full day session.

Rock Climbing is the ultimate vertical challenge.  The Lake District is thought of as the birth place of English rock climbing.  With our help you can join in the adventure and excitement of reaching the top. From taster sessions to skills development, we will provide all you need to enjoy this activity.

Want to increase you personal skills and experience beyond those taster sessions?  Our skills courses can help.  Whether you're looking to take National Governing Body Awards, or just trying to increase your own personal competence, we will be happy to advise you.  Why not make use of our expert advice and coaching experience?  Check our calendar, or simply contact us and tell us what you need.  

Why not celebrate that special event with something different.  Birthday parties, stag and hen parties can be really great if you add in that extra special adventure!  Choose any activities from our list, and we will make sure that you have a day to remember. 

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.

Outdoor adventure activities are a very powerful way of developing people's ability to work as part of a team or to act as a team leaders.  We can do this  by engaging people in enjoyable, and challenging multi  activity scenarios. We can then review and reflect on the events which took place.  This brings people together, and can help them become more aware of their potential role in your organisation. Team building is available as a full day or multi day course with a minimum group size of 5.
Preferably two long sleeved layers, and one long legged layer, with your lightweight waterproof jacket over the top. If you have waterproof trousers bring them.  Bring gloves, warm hat and additional warm clothing if weather not the best

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.

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
