Course Details
The Adventure week starts on Sunday evening with the course introduction, allowing you time to settle into River Camp and join the rest of the group for an evening meal.
Days begin at 9am and will finish around 5pm except for expeditions.
Each day will involve a different activity from:
Climbing and Abseiling
Learn to climb and pit yourself against our hard Dartmoor granite. Climbing can be about sheer power and strength to get to the top, but more often its about balance, delicate moves and technique that will see you succeed.
Canoeing
Explore the far reaches of beautiful and secluded rivers, maybe pack in the camping gear for an overnight expedition.
Kayaking
Experience the manoeuvrability of a river kayak, learn to control it, have a go at an eskimo roll.
Surf Kayaking
Once you've had a go on flat water feel the thrill and power of the surf, one of the most exciting places to be in a kayak.
Dartmoor Navigation
Learn map and compass skills to navigate yourself across the remote and hostile landscape of Dartmoor.
Overnight Expedition
You have the option of an overnight expedition which may be either walking across Dartmoor or as part of a longer canoe journey
