Canoeing / Kayaking

High ropes
Challenge for all participants. Split into two sections the multiple element high ropes course is both a physical and mental challenge. Climbers have the option of two levels of challenge taking them from ground level up to 12m in height finishing with flying fox ride returning them safely to the ground. Both courses are made up of a number of challenging climbing elements requiring a range of physical and mental skills to proceed on to the end. The multiple element high ropes course is suitable for participants in Year 7 or above and takes an average of 3hrs per group to complete.

Mid ropes
A challenging intermediate course that's fun and builds your skills at using the harness safety systems without the heights of the high ropes.
Low ropes
A ropes course challenge without the height. Suitable for most age groups, the low ropes course can be used to develop climbing skills, team work, co-operation and it's great fun. Working in spotting groups the climbers move around the course attempting to complete as many climbing elements as possible without touching the ground. The low ropes is included in most adventure activities programs. The course contains fourteen climbing elements, including a mini flying fox, takes approximately 1.5 hours for groups to complete and is suitable for all ages.
Giants ladder
Suitable for all age groups, the giants ladder is a fun adventure challenge taking a group approximately 1.5hrs to complete. At 12m in height the Giants Ladder requires a determined effort to get to the top. With rung spaced a varying intervals you get plenty of opportunity to rest and regain your strength as you climb. This activity also gives the climbers the opportunity to vary their own challenge and assist each other when the going gets tough. With the encouragement of the group below they reach their goals and enjoy the gentle belaying decent back to earth.
Pole Jump (Leap of faith)
Nothing will test your fears and faith in others more than a leap into free air. Commonly known s a "Pamper Pole" the pole jump involves climbing up a 8m pole, balancing on the top and attempting a dive towards an object hanging 2.5m in front of the pole. A great activity for building on adventure challenge and personal development. The pole jump takes approximately 1.5hrs for group to compete and is suitable for age groups from Year 5 upwards.
Yo yo
The ultimate in team work fun and excitement. Feel the thrill as you are strapped into the harness and propelled into the air by your friends. You are the human yo yo as you go "Round the World", "Walk the Dog" or just pretend you are superman.
Skysurfer and climbing wall
Enjoy a challenge? Try the "Skysurfer"! Starting at ground level you climb up through varying obstacles until you reach a surfboard suspended at the top. The challenge now is to stand on the board and ring a bell hanging above your head. Whether you make the bell or not, just getting there is half the fun.
With a choice of two climbing wall and a number of coloured routes up, you can select a climb that suits you. On all the climbs you will be learning techniques that will enable you to reach the top with a minimum of effort. Wall number two even has an overhang for those climbers determined to push their limits.
