Great Ideas for an action packed weekend in the Wye Valley
Have a plan for when you come to the Wye Valley for your next large group break. Here's some great ideas to mix and match with your group....
-
Canoeing – Paddle down the River Wye and discover just how hard it is to steer in a straight line.
-
Go Ape – Swing, zip, and wobble your way through treetop courses. Equal parts scary and exhilarating.
-
Gorge Walking – Splash, scramble, and bond as you tackle waterfalls and rocky streams together.
-
Escape Rooms – A great indoor option. Test your teamwork under time pressure with a puzzle-packed adventure.
-
Mountain Biking – Forest trails offer routes for both beginners and daredevils. Mud is compulsory.
-
Paintball or Laser Tag – Fast-paced, competitive, and guaranteed to unleash everyone’s inner action hero.
-
Caving – Explore hidden underground worlds for a truly unique group challenge.
-
Group Hikes with a Twist – Add wild swimming, treasure hunts, or silly challenges to turn a simple walk into an event.
The magic lies in the mix: one high-energy adventure, one slower pace, and plenty of time back at your large holiday home to relax, eat, and laugh.
Adventure weekends aren’t just about activities—they’re about creating stories you’ll be retelling for years.
Check out Forest House, High Cloud Farm and Symonds Yat Lodge for different styles of houses for your adventure.
