This is our most challenging programme. But big challenges, mean even bigger rewards. You need previous experience of exploring the outdoors and camping. You may have already been on an Outward Bound Adventure and now want the adventure of a lifetime, where you journey into the remotest corners of the UK and conquer the tallest mountains on the British Isles. The Pinnacle is a rolling camp from start to finish spending 19 days (18 nights) not just away from home, but away from the centre too, deep in the wild. You'll learn the art of navigation, camp craft and mountaineering as well as more technical skills like canoeing and rock climbing. You'll also be introduced to one of Outward Bound's most famous traditions: 'the solo'. By day nineteen you'll return to the centre with a team that's as solid as a rock, and with memories to last a lifetime.
If you're a 18-22 year old and looking for the ultimate adventure, the Pinnacle is for you. This 19-day expedition will push you outside of your comfort zone and beyond your limits. Reserve your place with a deposit of just £150 today.
