Tramping – Our tramping activities will be held in the stunning Waitākere Ranges in West Auckland. When the time comes to tackle some larger hills, we will head to the Southern Kaimais.
Sea Kayak – Our sea kayaking will all be done on the east coast, north of the Harbour Bridge.
Rock – The Essentials and Foundational courses will be held at Vertical Adventures in Glen Eden. For the Technical Skills and Journey courses, we’ll take you to quarries and exposed rock faces in Auckland for some true outdoor experience.
