This page outlines what the activities on offer at TrekCo and Deers Leap are, how they work and who they're suitable for.
Mountain Biking - Suitable for age 7 and up
Fairly self explanatory, a biking session with an instructor means that the group are taken on a suitable ride for their ability and age by one of our instructors who works at the park and is familiar with which trails to take for every type of rider.

Please remember that we can't teach children to ride whilst instructing others! That wouldn't be fair to the rest of the group. So if you have a child that can't ride a bike at all, it will be necessary to have an adult present to take care of that person whilst the others ride.
Rock Scrambling (included in 'Rock and Ride') - Suitable for any age
Follow our instructor around the rocks, running and squeezing through gaps, climbing up short sections and having a high energy blast of activity whilst getting to know the environment of the rocks. No ropes involved; we do issue helmets for everyone.

Tree Climb - Age 8 and above
A solo element, it does exactly what it says on the tin! Climb one of the highest trees on the site by using the blocks to pull and stand on. As you get higher, use what comes naturally and make use of the branches of the tree to reach the top.

High All Aboard - Age 8 and above
Groups of 2/3/4 teamwork element. The ultimate test of trust and teamwork. In groups of up to 4, climb the vertical pole to a small platform. Work together to get onto the top and huddle together to fit onto the limited floor space. It’s a relief to get this far but only half of the challenge has been met. Now the climbers must hold hands and lean out backwards to balance before letting go and swinging off!

Multi Vine - Age 8 and above
A 2 person teamwork element. Walk across a cable starting at opposite ends to each other and negotiate crossing in the middle, by using hanging ropes for balance. Once across, climb higher to a second cable and cross for a second time with the less useful criss cross ropes your only help apart from each other.

Perch or Trapeze Jump - Age 11 and above
An extreme solo element and real test of character. Climb the vertical pole and ever so carefully climb onto the top. Stand on top of the pole and focus on the trapeze hanging out in front of you before diving out and hopefully catching it with both hands. Guaranteed to get your heart racing and legs shaking, you feel great when you make it back down to the ground.

Jacobs Ladder - Age 11 and above
As a group of 3, climb the giant ladder high up into the trees. Large beams make up the rungs of the ladder and the climbers must work together and help each other to proceed. The higher you go, the bigger the challenge, as the gaps between the giant rungs increase. A strenuous climb, reaching the top takes you to the highest point of all of our elements.
