Packing Guide for Your Challenging Adventure Trip

 

Clothing Tips:

• For daily wear, T-shirts, shorts, and trainers are recommended. Any loose, lightweight clothing is also suitable, especially for travel days.

• Please avoid jeans – they aren’t suitable for activities.

• Make sure your child can carry their own luggage, so try not to overpack.

• When packing, consider both the length of stay and the weather, which is typically hot during the day and warm at night.

• Since you’ll be staying at our Marine Centre, bedding and towels will be provided.

• However, if your trip includes extra nights at the Mountain Centre, you’ll need to bring a sleeping bag and a small pillow for those nights.

• All specialist equipment for activities will be supplied by Challenging Adventure.​
