With the Spring-time holidays now upon us, you may be wondering what to do with the kids. Being stuck indoors can be tiring for both parents and children. Yes, we all know the ‘I’m bored, what are we doing today?’ line! At Vertical Descents, however, we have a number of fun activities that you and your family can enjoy, no matter the age group. Our outdoor activities in Scotland, or an outdoor adventure in Cornwall, are bound to lighten up their day and really make a huge splash on their holidays, and yours.

If you are worried about which activities would make the best choice for your family, don’t worry – we have years of experience in guiding groups of both older and younger children, and with a range of activities both land and water to try, there is bound to be something for everyone!

Activities for Water Babies

There are some of us who just can’t get enough of the thrills that being on the water bring. Parents who want to introduce their families to water sports needn’t look any further than planning a day out with Vertical Descents. We have plenty of ideas of what to do in Fort William and North Cornwall, and one of the most popular is our Wet ‘n’ Wild packages.

These 1 or 2-day packages are created to bring your family right into the heart of the wild adventure that is our outdoor world. Kids are fascinated by just how much there is to do in their own back gardens, and we are keen to show how much fun being in the outdoors and active can be. In Fort William and Perthshire, you can combine two activities including the immense white water rafting, river bugging, and canyoning UK.

Why should you choose to come with us for your activities? Well, we are one of the leading specialists of outdoor activities in the UK, with our professional guides and outdoor experts fully trained up and down the country to give you and your family the peace of mind you need to really enjoy your day out. Our adventures are exactly that – thrilling and exciting!

Gorge walking and canyoning are two of our most popular activities, and for good reason. Have you ever wanted to feel the spray of a river in your face, traverse down natural water flumes and jump right into cool river pools? You can do that and so much more with this great day out!

We will take care to match your ages and abilities to the activities that are right for you, so no matter who you are, you can enjoy your day with Vertical Descents to its fullest.

Days Out for Land Lovers

You can mix and match your water and land activities depending on your selected package, but we do also offer a range of other outdoor activities that take place on land for those who would prefer to stay high and dry!

If you are in Fort William or Perthshire, you can ride on our own Segway tour and adventure around the outdoors like never before. Add to that a chance for a choice of archery or mountain biking and you have a day out that your family will really remember as one that is high-speed, fun, and nothing short of exhilarating!

Down in Cornwall? There is even more fun to be had on the beautiful, warm sandy shores of some of Britain’s best beaches. Your family can take part in a day filled with power kiting and kite buggying. Have you ever felt the wind in your hair at the beach, and wondered just how strong it can be? The wind will carry you on a high-speed course down the length of the beach, and your kite will be in full flow in front of you. This activity is perfect for anybody who loves to go fast and feel the wind in their face!
