Get out and about in safety

Have you always wanted to experience the outdoor environment but felt it was too intimidating?
The idea of using a local guide is that you can ensure that the chosen destination or trip will suit your personal needs and that your safety will be a major consideration.

Who is it for?

The North Northumberland and Scottish Borders area is the ideal venue for the first time explorer, as well as the more experienced outdoor enthusiast. Families, couples, individuals and small groups are welcome.

It is our policy not to take out large groups as it is felt we should protect the environment and earn a welcome from people who live and work in the area. It is important that our grandchildren can enjoy it as we do.

What can I do?

Come out and experience the outdoor environment with a qualified and experienced guide.

 

Develop your technical skills and improve your approach to learning, allowing you to go further in your chosen activity. 

 

Explore some of the more remote areas of the UK as well as some other areas of the world with our expedition programme. 

A wide range of activities can be undertaken and the level will be determined by your experience and personal needs.
