In the mornings, for about 3 hours every week-day, campers follow an organised programme with various challenging activities. The activity choice is based on the age and skill level of individual campers who have to perform different skills tests such as swimming, climbing and biking in order to assign them to a group with similar skills level.
Safety Matters - Qualified Staff
Our trained counsellors work as a team under the leadership of an experienced Village Camps Programme Coordinator who ensures a vital emphasis on safety, high quality equipment and appropriate clothing and equipment for the campers.
The Village Camps’ team is assisted by fully qualified local specialist staff with first-hand knowledge of the terrain when taking part in specialist activities/sports.
