Friday Night – We ask all our teams to arrive on the Friday night at the start point for a briefing and to plan your route for Saturday.
Saturday – Teams start their challenge on the Saturday with a route of around 18km completing all the challenges which face them – in the past we’ve done everything from canoeing, a Jacob’s ladder, high rope challenges to a 16 foot giant see-saw in the trees! There are points available for every activity that you take part in.
Saturday Night – The competition stops for a few hours and we relax with a Film, Music, Food and Inflatables!
Sunday – Our event on Sunday takes a different twist and features lots of different activities in the local area. You’ll need to be fast and plan well to pick up all the points!

Expect to have a great time with your team, take part in some new and exciting activities, have a laugh and push yourself to win.
