heartModerate physical activity, involving some lifting

This is a hands-on team activity designed to encourage participants to think about co operating and supporting one another. It consists of a series of large structures and obstacles that have to be negotiated.

One or more of the elements are ideal to include in our bespoke programmes for team development, team leadership or organisational develepment, or for a fun team building day or adult activity session. Although it is not a physical assault course, it does involve some lifting and the direct support of fellow team members. To complete the challenge course, the participants have to physically carry each other over and negotiate their way through the different elements.

However, as each challenge is independent of the others, the challenges can be selected to meet the programme objectives. This also allows several teams to use the course at any one time, rotating between the different challenges. The team challenge course includes the following elements:

  • The Mohawk Walk
  • The Tyre Thread
  • The Wall
  • The Giant's Finger
  • The Beam

Whilst the activity is physical in nature, each challenge is carefully supervise by our fully qualified instructors and a full briefing on safety and the importance of using the correct lifting technique is always given.
