Rope Bridge

The Rope Bridge or 'Elvis' (you will find out why) bridge is a great way to finish off either Raft Building or Kayaking. Used in conjunction with water activities its a great way of making sure you get 'wet'. So definitely not for those that like staying dry!

The aim is to make it across to the other side without falling in! - Not many make it, so are you up for the challenge! 

All activity risk assessments can be found under the resources section of our website.
