Off-site hire

Bringing our activities to you!

In addition to the range of activities Nene Outdoors offers on and around the Gunwade Lake at Ferry Meadows, there are also a number of activities available for hire, that can be brought directly to your event.

Our mobile climbing towers are great for charity events, fetes, corporate days and anything else where you want to add a touch of adventure! Choose from our 'Rock and Road' tower for an authentic rock climbing experience, or our 'Clip and Climb' wall, with its bright colours and geometric shapes which offer an exciting range of climbing challenges.

Standard hire rate for our mobile climbing wall is £120 per hour.

If you prefer to keep your feet on the ground, unleash your inner Robin Hood or Katniss Everdeen with our mobile archery hire experience!

The standard hire rate for archery activities is just £60 per hour.

Both activities require a 3 hour minimum booking, and hire includes a qualified Nene Outdoors instructor.
