Adventure Activities for Schools & Colleges | Lake District | Cumbria

School adventure activities - canoeing in the Lake DistrictWhether you're looking for a half day of activities or a week long programme here at Summitreks we will develop a bespoke package to meet your needs. Our programmes include a range of challenging activities for children and students which are aimed at problem solving, team building and personal development. Or you can simply let us give your group a fun time getting active in the "Great Outdoors". For older age groups e.g. college & university we can provide more challenging adventure activities.

Summitreks Adventure Centre is situated on the shores of Coniston Water in the heart of the Lake District.  From our main base in Coniston we can deliver our activity programmes and courses anywhere in the National Park.  All our adventure activities take place under fully qualified and licensed supervision.

Our activity programmes incorporate the environmental, discovery and awareness objectives embodied in the John Muir Award. Completion of the full John Muir Award is available as an option for all children participating in our adventure activity programmes.

Working with partners we can also provide options to link activity sessions with key areas of the National Curriculum. This provides a wider range of opportunities for "Learning Outside the Classroom" while experiencing the natural beauty and landscape of the National Park.

If you are seeking a residential package then please call to discuss your requirements. Alternatively you can email us if that is more convenient. We work in partnership with a number of accommodation providers who provide a range of quality, all inclusive residential packages offering excellent value.

If you book a full day of activities our prices start from as little as £20 per person per activity session and we offer free leader places linked to numbers booked.
