Next adventures

Woodland Adventure

A day of traditional woodland fun, suitable for all ages: build dens, light fires, cook your own lunch and, by popular request, make Bear Dog doughnuts. After lunch have free-flow fun with the rope-bridge, zip-wire, catties and blind volleyball etc. 
10th July (plus 11th July, if required)
10am to 3pm Year 2+ £40 including lunch

Minions Adventure

Several children have been asking for this for months: small, fun, irrepressible, born to serve an evil master hell-bent on world domination… Who knows what they will get up to? They could attempt to steal the Moon or the Crown Jewels, or perhaps, this time, they may stop their Tyrannosaurus Rex from plunging to his death. BELLO
14th, 17th, 18th July (plus 21st July, if required)
10am to 3pm. Ideal for Year1-6 (older welcome) £35 including lunch

How to Train Your Dragon Adventure

24th, 25th, 28th July (plus 29th July, if required)
10am to 3pm. Ideal for Year1-6 (older welcome) £35 including lunch

Previous Adventures

These adventures are not currently available, but here’s a tiny handful of previous adventures to give you an idea of what we do:

Horrible Histories adventure

At last! As demanded, Bear Dog fans will be able to go on a horribly historic adventure. Spend a day with Gorgeous Georgians, Slimy Stuarts, Rotten Romans, Vicious Vikings, Angry Aztecs and very Terrible Tudors. Educational fun in glorious, very silly, Bear Dog style.

Hobbit adventure

Join Bilbo and the Dwarves on their quest to ‘burgle’ Smaug’s treasure. Brave Gollum to find the One Ring; defeat irksome orcs; tackle a giant Mirkwood spider; light fires with Gandalf; feast on ‘honey cakes’ with Beorn and help the brave Men of the Lake shoot down the dragon.

Team Survival Challenge

Many of our ‘old hands’ have gone on literally dozens of Bear Dog adventures, but how much have they actually learned? This day will put them to the test. You and your team are marooned with a tarp, a cooking vessel, a fire-steel, a first aid kit, basic rations and a knife. Can your team rig a weather-tight shelter, make fire, construct a cooking tripod, cook a meal and improvise a ‘camp gadget’ to bring a little ‘luxury’ to your life?
