About

Barrels, planks, ropes and water are the recipe for a thorough soaking and great fun, in this activity. We have the sheltered waters of the river Wye at Glasbury at hand which made for the ideal place to spend a few hours raft building.

A great session is guaranteed with this activity and it is ideal for large groups of adults and children, with the aim to build a raft and then put it to the test and see if it floats. Equipped with buoyancy aids, helmets and paddles, teams are given a short time to design their raft; once the instructor is happy with the designs, construction can begin with a selection of materials are at hand: plastic barrels, long poles, short poles and not forgetting the all important rope.
The rafts must be big enough and strong enough to carry the team through a series of races and games and back to the shore but, how long will you raft last? Don't worry if yours earns the name Titanic, the safety marshals will be close by to rescue you and what remains of the raft.

This activity is ideal for all types of groups from families to corporates, with its team building and communication elements and is great for those who have that competitive edge!
