Safety

Outdoor adventure activities are seen as dangerous, extreme sports by people who don't participate in them. This can be true and there is an inherent risk in all activities, but with the use of well practised skills, experience and judgement, these activities can be safely and enjoyable participated in. Our expertise is to use our skills and experience to manage the risk in accordance with the ability of the participant. We are fully committed to this.

All of our instructors have been involved in various outdoor pursuits for many years and are committed to a career in the outdoors and their own professional development.
