Frequently Asked Questions
Have a question? Hopefully we can help here…
How much does it cost?
That really depends on the activity but none of our sessions or trips aim to make money, we just have to cover the cost of the transport/instructor/facility. For example, our lunchtime runs are free, our weekly climbing and bouldering sessions are £7.50 and our walks range from £15-21. Please see above for detailed information and prices for each of our activities.
