Raft building & racing

At the start of the session our friendly and knowledgeable team will teach you a variety of knots and raft building techniques. You’ll then be presented with a selection of materials to design and build the ultimate raft! After the allotted construction time we’ll launch the rafts and see if they stay intact as you race them across the lake! Will you emerge victorious and reach the other side first?!

There will be plenty of fun and games as you take on various challenges designed to put your raft to the test. Will you emerge victorious and reach the other side first without any disasters along the way!
