Skills for Independent Adventures
Like our Family Activity Days, Family Outdoor Skills are delivered through our training arm, Adventure Expertise. Taking your family rock climbing or into the mountains on adventures may seem daunting but we would love to show you that a whole range of adventures is much more accessible than you think.
These courses are therefore designed to give you the confidence to get out with your family without an instructor or guide. Sessions are tailored specifically to your family - you, the ages of your children and age-specific adaptations and techniques, what you would like to aim for and the places you would like to go.
Running courses to equip families with skills to have their own adventures is some of the most enjoyable work that we do and we'd love to help you get going. Lifelong family outdoor adventures await!
While COVID-19 may present ongoing uncertainty, our COVID-19 Booking Guarantee allows you to book with confidence in case of needing to reschedule - follow links below for more details.

Family Climbing Skills
Learn to climb independently as a family. A Family Climbing Skills day differs from a Rock Climbing day in that we spend the day looking at technical skills for you to be able to safely set up rock climbs for your and your family under your own steam.
We are passionate about teaching outdoor skills and have safe, simple systems to show you so that you and your family can head out to enjoy rock climbing when you want to. These skills are much more accessible and achievable than you might think and can lead to a lifetime of shared adventures together - we'd love to help you on that journey.

Family Mountain Skills
Scrambling, safeguarding, navigating
There can be a lot to think about for a safe mountain day and this can make heading out into the hills for an adventurous day as a family feel quite overwhelming.
Fear not! We have tried and tested formulas to help you plan in advance and remember everything that you need with our Be Adventure Aware prompts to take away and skills sessions tailored to your family.
Based on what you'd like to do in future, we tailor skills training to your aims and show you techniques to safeguard and progress your adventures that are age-appropriate for your family members. Examples include how to approach and safeguard tricky rocky steps for younger family members, how a rope could be used to tackle some more exciting rocky ways up rocky ground for an added adventure factor and how to have a secure plan in place for emergencies or poor weather moving in.
Resources for you to take away and pop in your rucksack are a handy back up to refer to once your adventures are under way.
