About this activity
Escape the ordinary and experience the awesome at The Bear Grylls Adventure, located at Birmingham’s NEC
Full description
Adventure seekers can choose from 11 epic activities- from climbing and shooting, to indoor skydiving and axe throwing- to push themselves to the limits and try something new and exciting!
Bear Grylls Adventure is home to the tallest high ropes course in Europe, standing at an almighty 65ft tall and with 36 different obstacles, it’s a must for those with a head for heights. And guests who fancy leaving the ground behind altogether can take flight in the iFly wind tunnel- no parachute, no plane, no wings – just you, the iFly expert and the air.
For those who prefer to stay well and truly grounded, axe throwing offers the perfect opportunity to test your aim as you let your axe fly. You can also experience archery under the supervision of an Archery GB trained instructor, who will teach you how to handle your bow and arrow and lead you in fun challenges!
You can also try your hand at shooting, snorkelling, zip-lining and climbing- their climbing wall has over 20 routes to explore, modelled on real life mountains including El Capitan and Fontainebleau! Plus, every adventurer will also get to test their agility on the venue’s assault course, which is included within any activity ticket.
