How do you plan a group adventure weekend? Pick a base, plan one big activity and one gentle one, and leave time to rest.
A weekend lets a group relax and bond, but it needs more planning than a single day.
Choose a base
Pick a region that suits most of your group’s travel. See our locations for ideas. Check how far each activity is from where you will stay.
Plan the pace
Put the big activity on day one while everyone is fresh. Keep day two gentler, because legs will be tired.
Sort food and rooms early
Ask whether accommodation and meals are included. Many adventure centres can recommend places to stay. Book beds early in summer.
Plan for weather
Have a back-up for both days. Ask each provider what they do in poor weather.
Share the plan
Send a simple timetable, a kit list and the meeting point a week ahead.
