What activities are available during educational visits in 2026?

Discovery package - Our discovery package allows teachers to offer a flexible programme of fun and challenging activities. Activities available include archery, orienteering, shelter building, team challenges, guided walks, navigation kikes and let’s get cooking.

Multi-activity package - Full of challenges for the brain and body our multi-activity packages are designed to engage participants through practical PE based activity. This package offers a mixture of adventurous and on-site activities that make the most of the great outdoors and the hostel locality.

Alex Rider packages - We’ve joined forces with Walker Books and author Anthony Horowitz to create unique action-filled YHA Alex Rider adventure packages. This pioneering programme has two adrenaline-fuelled missions, each pupil will create their very own spy name and immerse themselves in the Alex Rider world. Both packages build lifelong skills centred around team building and outdoor pursuits.

Adventure bolt-on - There are a near-endless number of opportunities to explore, discover new things and try unusual activities. This package offers a range of adventurous activities on a half-day or full-day basis so you can make your residential trip suit you. Activities include: abseiling, canoeing, high ropes, kayaking and quad biking.

YHA bolt-on - These activities are perfect for teachers to add on as an 'extra' particularly for self-led groups.
