Rope Activities

High and Low Ropes

Our specially designed ropes course lays the foundation to the whole experience at Glenborrodale. With an emphasis on participation, trust and creative thinking, skills are developed which can be transferred to everyday life.

Low rope activities usually involve group work, they do not require any special safety system.

Smaller groups or individuals work on the high ropes This course includes climbing equipment and the use of a Belay system for safety. A complex mix of fear, anxiety, adrenaline and exhilaration during this activity enables  young people to do things they had no idea they could do.

Zip Wire

Speed, dizzy heights and fear makes this one of the most popular activities onsite!
Offering excitement and a personal challenge, it helps build confidence to face further challenges during their stay.
"I enjoyed the zipwire a lot because I knew it was 100% safe and we worked well as a team. I learnt that I am not afraid of challenging activities" John, Whitnash Youth Club, aged 14
