Action Challenge
Challenging activities for the adventurous at Whinfell Forest.
Try out Climbing and Abseiling on our outdoor climbing tower and test your nerve and skills on the High Ropes Course, Fan Descender or Zip Wire. Action Challenge is designed to be something families can do together and teams can enjoy. It's a unique opportunity to learn new skills, and a great way of making friends.
Abseiling
If you've got a good head for heights, learn to do an abseil from our 13 metre tower. Feel the thrill as you take control of your descent!
Climbing
Learn the techniques of climbing on our 13 metre climbing tower, which has a range of routes from easy to the more challenging.
Fan Descender
For a serious adrenaline surge! Experience the thrill of parachuting as you step off the 9 metre platform and descend quickly to the ground.
High Ropes
This is a spectacular ropes course involving a number of poles, ropes and beams. Our team of instructors will guide you through the different elements which all combine to provide a challenging course of climbing and balancing actions including the terrifying 'Leap Of Faith.'
Jumpzone
This new 4-in-1 bungee tampoline allows up to 4 jumpers to simultaneously achieve extraordinarily high jumps on a trampoline with stability and safety.
Tree Trekking
You are connected into the Expo Glider safety harness system whilst you tackle our Aerial Adventure course, experiencing the many individual challenges from the Postman's Walk, Burma Bridge, Hanging Platforms and Indiana Bridge to make the exhilarating 13 metres Power Fan finale where you will make a quick and controlled descent to the ground.
Zip Wire
This is the ultimate rush! Climb to the top of our 13-metre tower (via ladders) where you will be attached to the wire. Then fly through the trees and abseil to the ground.
3G-Swing
Here's the Action Company activity that we think is our most serious test of your daring. Picture this: you're attached to a swing at the top of a 13-metre climbing tower. Then you jump off. (With us so far?) You swing wide across the hall, swooping back and forth until you finally come to a stop. And then you abseil to the ground. Most 3G-Swingers get a rousing cheer from the crowd when they land - and they definitely deserve it.
