questions.

Call 03332 004 469 ↗

Is Trailblazer right for my child?

It suits active, adventurous 10 to 14 year olds who love variety and a challenge, and is a great next step for children who have already been to Adventure Camp. Prefer bushcraft and campfires? Try Adventure Camp.

Do they need any experience?

No. Our instructors guide every activity, and children are encouraged to push themselves at their own pace.

Can my child come on their own?

Yes. Many children arrive on their own. Friends and siblings can be placed together using “Tribe buddies” on the form we email you after booking.

Where will they sleep and eat?

In wooden eco pods, up to four to a pod with bedding provided, and meals and snacks freshly prepared on site and served in the refectory. Special diets are catered for and camp is nut-free.

What should they pack?

Your Parent’s Pack has a full kit list. Pack old clothes and, if rain is forecast, waterproofs and spare layers. Phones and valuables stay at home.

What are drop-off and pick-up times?

Drop-off is between 10am and 10:30am on the first day and pick-up is at 2pm on the last day. Full directions are in your Parent’s Pack.
