You'll spend 14 days (13 nights) away from home, experience multi-day adventures and nights out in the wild away on overnight expeditions. To take on the challenge of a Summit Adventure, you'll already have experience of exploring the outdoors and camping in the wild. You may have been to Outward Bound before or taken on challenges like your Duke of Edinburgh Award. You'll take journeys into the wild and explore the natural environment. Stretch your comfort zone with activities like hiking, canoeing, gorge scrambling, abseiling, rock climbing, rafting, kayaking and wild swimming. On this 14-day adventure, you will also plan and go out on a number of adventurous, overnight expeditions. You will seek out what the UK National Parks really have to offer. Explore challenging terrain, sleep under canvas and enjoy being as close to nature as possible.
For 16-17 year olds who actively enjoy outdoor experiences and camping, and want to challenge themselves on a longer adventure away with multi-day expeditions. Reserve your place with a deposit of just £150 today.
