Tree Surfers is a tree-based high ropes course. Children can take part from the age of 4. There are a number of obstacles including rope bridges, zip lines, walkways and Tarzan swings. There are four specially designed high ropes courses from ‘junior’ to the ‘black run’.

Canoeing takes place on the River Tamar which divides Cornwall and Devon. You can take a scenic paddle from the historic Quay at Cotehele upriver, past the village of Calstock and into the wilds of the upper tidal limits.

There are archery sessions for those aged 6 and over. Sessions are available in hourly slots. You can also hire bikes with a number of trails to explore.
