Due to significant flood damage, we regret to inform you that we are no longer able to offer river activities at this time.
We appreciate your understanding and patience as we navigate through this challenging period.
We will keep you updated on any changes and hope to resume river activities as soon as it is safe to do so.

Our challenge ropes course requires participants to make their way around an aerial obstacle course. Climbers are harnessed and work in pairs to manoeuvre around the course. Overcoming fears and stepping outside the comfort zone are all important.
