Example Activities

Abseiling: Ideal for people who are looking for the excitement and adventure of a high rope activity without the need to climb up the cliff first! A very popular activity with those wanting to build their confidence with heights, Biggar Adventure comes to a crag near you, making it even more inviting for novices.

Archery: Have you ever fancied yourself as Robin Hood? This is just the ticket; come and shoot some arrows in a safe structured environment. The mobile range travels throughout the Scottish Borders Edinburgh and South Lanarkshire, making it popular for birthday parties to weddings (Maid Marions warmly welcome to show Robin how it’s done!)

Canoeing: Stable, spacious two-person canoes makes this a very sociable paddling experience. Sessions can be tailored to suit a variety of abilities and outcomes, on flat water lakes or journeying along canals or rivers. Popular trips include the river Tweed, river Clyde, St Mary’s loch or the Union canal- where you can start from the heart of Edinburgh!

Gorge Scrambling: Get right in the middle of things by walking up a river. Scramble up mossy rocks, climb rock walls and jump into deep pools; there’s no better or more exhilarating way of exploring Scotland’s great watercourses. Safe within a guided group, you can travel up through the glens and valleys in a way you never thought possible, a fantastic experience in extraordinary places.

Guided Walks: From a gentle pathway to the Tweed Valley’s rolling hills, to the full-scale mountain climb, Biggar Adventure offers the chance to experience some of the greatest landscapes in Europe, and for those who think they know Scotland- think again! Specialising in finding new and unexplored routes through the countryside, walks can be tailored to suit any level of ability or fitness.

Mountain Biking: The Scottish landscape lends itself well to this exhilarating sport. You’ll be spoiled for choice in the Tweed Valley, with Glentress and Innerleithen on the door step, and the rest of the “7 Stanes” (trail centres) not far away- or lots of off-trail cross country routes for gung-ho adventurers to choose from.

Rock Climbing: Located throughout the Tweed Valley, Edinburgh and South Lanarkshire, indoor taster sessions, introduction to outdoor climbing and technique improvement are all catered for with a safe and professional approach. From your first time climbing anything, to whatever your skill level with expert guidance and coaching, Biggar can help you progress!

Teambuilding: Team Building and Problem Solving activities are great for developing relationships, cohesion, confidence and communication skills.
