Crazy Golf
Age Appropriate
- Children
- Teenagers
- Adults
Location
- Outdoor
Our nine hole crazy golf course isn’t just a test of your skills and sanity. It’s also a miniature tour of Scotland.
‘Eclectic’ pretty much sums up the attractions. From Nessie to the Falkirk Wheel, all Scottish life is here. We’ve even lovingly rendered the road to England – minus the traffic jams and middle lane hogs.

Disc Golf
Age Appropriate
- Children
- Teenagers
- Adults
Location
- Outdoor
Known also as folf, disc golf combines the art of throwing a frisbee with the precision of golf. The only difference is instead of holes, you have nets and it’s a wee bit shorter. But apart from that, the same rules as golf apply (sort of)! The aim of the game is to complete the course in as few a throws as possible.
Foot Golf
Age Appropriate
- Children
- Teenagers
- Adults
Location
- Outdoor
For those of you not in the know, Footgolf is a combination of, you guessed it, football and golf. The aim of the game is to get the ball from the tee to the hole in as few kicks as possible. Sounds simple, doesn’t it? It’s definitely not.
Aloft Aerial Adventure
Age Appropriate
- Children
- Teenagers
- Adults
Location
- Outdoor
From tree-to-tree, across obstacles and zip lines, Aloft! is Crieff Hydro’s tree top adventure centre.
Starting at 3m high, course 1 is the lowest of our adventures. But don’t let that fool you, there are still 9 obstacles and 4 zip lines to overcome.
Course 2 has a starting height of 8m. But with 9 obstacles and 2 zip lines to defeat, it is not for the faint-hearted.

Driving Range

Location

It’s time to focus on your long game… Enjoy eight fully covered bays, four of which have the fancy new PowerTees, four of which do not! (We’re a sentimental bunch, so we’re hanging on to these 4 ‘original’ bays for a little longer).
Golf
Age Appropriate
- Children
- Teenagers
- Adults
Location
- Outdoor
In need of a warm up? Start by sharpening your swing at the driving range, or work on your short game on our 9 hole, par-three course. But not to worry, with views this good you can definitely add distraction to your list of excuses for scoring that bogey!
Climbing Wall
Age Appropriate
- Children
- Teenagers
- Adults
Location
- Outdoor
In saying that, it does give you the chance to cut out the scariest bits. Which makes it ideal if you’re OK with heights but know your limits.
Our climbing wall is for everyone over 110cm, weighing between 3-17 stone.
As you stretch, grab and grapple your way upwards our clever safety system keeps everything safe and speedy.

Air Rifle Shooting
Age Appropriate
- Children
- Teenagers
- Adults
Location
- Outdoor
If you’ve never shot before, air rifles are a great introduction to the sport. Our instructors will give you lots of hints and tips; pretty soon you’ll be picking off those targets like a pro.
Bit more experienced? You’ll come away with a big grin on your face, as you unlock the secrets to hitting the big scores, more and more often.
Safety kit, rifles, ammo – everything’s included. Except your steely nerve and competitive spirit, obviously

Archery
Age Appropriate
- Children
- Teenagers
- Adults
Location
- Outdoor
Fancy taking aim at a grizzly bear? Or even a wild boar with an apple on its head? You’re right – these are a far cry from the wildlife you’ll usually find in the Strathearn valley. Which means you must be aiming at the giant cork targets in our archery range.
Care to make it even more interesting?
If you’re shooting arrows with your family, how about a week away from washing-up duties for the winner? Make it best of 30 arrows to keep the tension up for as long as possible

Woodland Combat
Age Appropriate

- Teenagers
- Adults
Location
- Outdoor
We’ve been keeping it a secret but we just can’t hold it in any longer…
It’s time to bring out the big (new) guns!
Climb back into your overalls, swipe on the camo paint and prepare to deploy once again.
Just a game? Wrong! Our lightweight laser guns might be pain free but don’t let that lull you into a false sense of security – your pride can still be dented if you find yourself fallen behind enemy lines!

Treasure Hunt
Age Appropriate

Get the gang together and head off on your very own adventure. Following the clues around the estate, answer the questions to complete the phrase before heading back to Action Glen to claim your prize! A great way to spend an hour with the family exploring the outdoors
Banana boat and Big Mable
Age Appropriate
- Teenagers
- Adults
Location
- Outdoor
It’s no surprise: this boat is big, yellow and infectiously good fun. No matter how slow we start, as soon as the pace picks up, you will fall off. Even if it takes a few hard runs. There are no exceptions. But who will be the last one clinging on?
Big Mable is… well… we could describe it as a ‘big sofa, pulled behind a speedboat’. And that would be pretty close.

Knee & Wake Boarding
Age Appropriate

- Teenagers
- Adults
Location

We offer an outdoor experience with an abundance of attractions, activities and obstacles to keep the little ones (and big ones) entertained! Situated behind the Action Glen hub, Glen’s Adventure Park is the perfect place to explore together and make some muddy memories.
Ringo
Age Appropriate
- Children
- Teenagers
- Adults
Location
- Outdoor
That’s right, it’s a big inflatable circular thing with a hole in the middle…which is where you go. You don’t need any particular skills to ride in a ringo, just a strong grip and nerves of steel.
Two ringos are towed behind the powerboat so it’s an experience you can share. Speed, splashes, lift-offs are all there. And bumping into your fellow ‘ringoer’ is always a possibility.

Water Skiing
Age Appropriate
- Children
- Teenagers
- Adults
Location
- Outdoor
You’ll hardly have time to take in Loch Earn’s fabulous views as you speed across the surface of the water; you’ll have other things on your mind, like holding on, standing up and maybe some 360 degree spins. No?
Unlike downhill skiing, the ‘track’ is pretty flat and straight, and there are no obstacles. If you’re new to this sport, our qualified instructors are there to help you find your feet. If you’ve done it before, you don’t need us to tell you about the adrenalin rush.

4x4 Off Road Driving Experience
Age Appropriate
- Teenagers
- Adults
Location
- Outdoor
When we say ‘off-road’, what we really mean is ‘in-quarry’ – our very own petrol head playground, complete with what looks like a series of ludicrous cambers, impossible angles and gravity-mocking ascents.
Our expert will start by showing you what a Land Rover can really do. After that? It’s your turn! Don’t worry, our incredibly experienced BORDA qualified instructor will talk you through the course.

Mini Quad Bikes
Age Appropriate

Our 50cc quad bikes mean your 8-11 year olds can take to our track for their very own driving adventure.
Book a session with your friends – or even your brothers and sisters. You’re guaranteed a big smile, lots of mud and plenty of brilliant photo opportunities.

Quad Pods
Age Appropriate
- Children
- Teenagers
- Adults
Location
- Outdoor
Is it a quad bike? Is it a train? No – it’s a conga-line of five off-road pods for the little ones, pulled along by a big, muddy quad bike.
When we say ‘little ones’ we really mean it. As long as a grown-up bumps along, the quad pods are suitable for ages 3 and up. Over 3s can fly solo if mum and dad want to relax with a coffee instead. (Adults, eh?)
Either way, get ready for a chorus of delighted cheers.

Quad Biking
Age Appropriate

Location

Climb into the boiler suit. Slip-on the helmet. Fire up the engine. Then tackle every rut, bump and crazy incline in our very own sand and gravel quarry. We’ve built the course for thrills and thrills alone: slide the chicanes, plunge across streams, churn through the woods. Hold tight.
Segway
Age Appropriate
- Children
- Teenagers
- Adults
Location
- Outdoor
Segways are easily our most popular activity. It’s easy to see why – it’s physically impossible to hide your beaming grin as you hurtle around the off-road track for around an hour. No wonder we’ve got Scotland’s biggest fleet.
The clever technology of your two-wheeled electric steed keeps you tootling along at a fare old pace. It also keeps your Segway remarkably stable, even up and down the steepest paths and bumpy terrain of the off-road course

Two-Seater Quad Bikes
Age Appropriate

- Teenagers
- Adults
Location
- Outdoor
If, much like the queen, you prefer to be driven then this is the way to do it! In fact, our 2-seater quad bikes are great for anyone aged 8 over above who fancies the mayhem of the ‘adult’ session but isn’t old enough – or brave enough – to drive themselves. Either way, you’ll be perched behind one of our experienced instructors whilst they navigate the rivers, ravines and steep descents in our sand and gravel quarry. Hold on tight…
