The Adventure Level Pathway: Progress through our camps
Where will your child's adventure begin?
Every great adventure needs a starting line. Our new Adventure Level Pathway is a four-tier system that grows with your child, from first treetop climbs at age 8 to sea cliffs and surf coves at 17. Each level offers age-appropriate thrills, real personal growth, and recognition they can wear with pride.
Level 1: New Forest JUNIOR Camp (ages 8-11)
Young adventurers take on exciting new challenges, from thrilling outdoor activities to mastering life away from home and conquering their worries with brave new steps. Guided by awesome camp leaders, kids test their limits, discover hidden strengths and make lifelong friends, returning home proud, confident and ready for the next big adventure.

Level 2: New Forest Adventure Camp (ages 12-17)
Campers push their boundaries with treetop climbs, mountain biking on scenic trails and water park obstacle courses. Unplugging from screens and stepping into nature, they build genuine international friendships, strengthen teamwork and discover new talents.

Level 2: English & Adventure Camp (ages 12-17)
This option combines outdoor action with immersive English learning. Campers build speaking confidence in lively morning lessons and real-world conversations, then head out for treetop climbs, raft-building and relaxed evening activities. Days out to London and Oxford bring English culture to life.

Our highest-tier, multi-stop journey runs from the New Forest all the way to Cornwall. Thrill-seekers leave their routines behind to tackle wild sea cliffs and rugged trails, with dramatic land and sea adventures along the way. Passing iconic coves and surf havens with expert leaders, teens forge lifelong friendships, feel a fierce sense of achievement and return home with legendary stories.
