Family Friendly High Ropes Session
Challenge yourself with these adrenaline-fuelled high ropes sessions.
You'll be swinging through the trees in the Elan Valley, traversing a series of interlinking bridges and obstacles, and whizzing down the zipline. Plus, there is also an opportunity to try the 'leap of faith' - are you brave enough?!
These family friendly sessions are great fun for everyone aged 10 and up. You will, of course, be supervised by our instructors and in a safety harness but it's still an exhilarating way to spend an afternoon. Any under 18s must be accompanied by an adult.
Sessions are available every Thursday in August. Costs are £35 pp for adults and £30 pp for children aged 10 - 18.
For safety reasons, all participants must be reasonably fit and well, over 1.4m (approx 4'6) and weigh less than 20 stone, with a waist of less than 43 inches.
Each session is for a maximum of 8 people. For any group booking enquiries, please contact us directly.
Meet at the Sawmill Activity Centre in the Claerwen Valley.

To access, cross Garreg Ddu, pass the church on your right. Follow the road and the activity centre is down a steep track on your left. It is a sharp turn so better to continue along the road, turn at the layby and then double back on yourself.
