- Helping children and young people engage with the outdoors
- Develop teamwork skills and resilience with overcoming obstacles
- We have great traffic free, dedicated, all weather Mountain bike trails for maximum enjoyment
- Easy booking because we know you’re busy
- With over 10 years experience and thousands of sessions under our belt, you can be sure that we know what we’re doing!
- Hire bikes are available at a discounted rate to help keep it simple and because we understand that budgets can be tight
- Free minibus and coach parking if as a school, you pre-book and use guides
