Adventure Event | Coniston | 15 and 16 July 2023
This Adventure event is an exhilarating and uplifting outdoor adventure. Under the watchful eye of highly-trained instructors, participants will be encouraged and empowered as they take on a series of challenges, specially designed to help build team spirit and self-confidence. Before they know it, they’ll be facing fears and achieving more than they ever believed they could. You don’t have to be fighting fit or as strong as an ox to take part; a positive attitude and a good sense of humour are far more important.
Challengers will be able to experience activities such as waterfall jumping, canyoning, rock scrambling, abseiling, hiking and canoe rafts. And as it’s an overnight event; there will be the chance to sleep under the stars, enjoy locally produced food and make the most of the onsite bar.
