Try taking a peak at the county from high in the sky. You
can choose from para, hand or traditional gliding, or a hot air balloon flight
- you could just take a spin with an instructor or you
could sign up for a spot of training if you’re feeling braver! If having your
eyes in the sky isn’t something that floats your boat then why not try an
adventure on the water?
Canoeing is a popular pastime up in the Peaks or perhaps
you’d prefer trying your hand at windsurfing? But if you’re handy with a rope
then, there’s even more for you to dare to do. There’s climbing, abseiling,
caving, a variety of activity centres and of course, the well-known and
wonderful Go Ape experience!
If you want to take a trip to a cavern but don’t fancy
caving, then you can explore several underground wonderlands all across the
Peak District, both natural caves and manmade centuries ago. Enjoy stunning
stalagmites and stalactites, fascinating fossils and at Speedwell Cavern you
can even take a fairy tale boat ride through an 18th Century mine!
Being a dare devil doesn’t always mean doing something
unusual either, there are lots of cycle tracks and walking routes that need a
strong will and firm determination to conquer!
Whatever type of activity you choose to undertake, you can
be sure that when you return to Oaklands in the evening, you’ll get a warm
welcome, cosy wood burning fire and a hot tub with a view. Enjoying the comfort
of our four star lodges after a hard days dare devilling will make sure that
you’re ready to take on the challenge of your next adventure in the morning.
