Birthday Parties

Who are your parties for?

Our parties are for children from 2 to 16 years. Most of our parties are for 10-20 participants but we can cater for more if required and often have the whole school class attend.

What kind of parties do you offer?

Typically our parties are 2 hours. We offer a range of activities and can tailor a party to suit your interests- from axe throwing, tag archery to aerial tree climbing, bushcrafts such as fire lighting, whittling and den building to scavenger hunts, raft building and so much more! Below is a few party-theme ideas but please do get in touch to discuss how we can tailor a party to suit your birthday adventurer!
