Outdoors Experience Courses in Scotland

kayaking Combine your English language course at one of the BABSSCo schools with a week or two at the Cape Adventure Outdoors Experience in Scotland, or just book a week or two weeks on the course separately.

This is a unique opportunity to take part in an action-packed week or two of adventure, exploration, discovery and fun in the beautiful surroundings of Cape Adventure International in the Highlands of Scotland.

The courses are for girls and boys aged 13-17. In 2008, two courses are available:

  • A two week course for students aged 14-17, from Friday 18 July - Saturday 2 August*
  • A one week course for students aged 13-17, from Friday 1 August - Saturday 9 August

* Some previous experience of outdoor pursuits is necessary for students attending the 14-day course.

Activities and exploration keep you busy as you discover the joys of climbing and abseiling, surfing, land yachting, orienteering, sea kayaking amongst islands rich in birdlife and seals, volleyball, teambuilding tasks, camping and a survival night. You will experience the thrill and fun of true adventure!
