BROCKHOLES Nature Reserve is set to host its first extreme adventure weekend on Saturday, August 10 and Sunday, August 11.

Activities, including mobile high ropes and ‘spider mountain’, where you make your way up a series of elasticised spider webs and, when you reach the seven metre summit, slide down a vertical drop slide, will be on offer.

Thrill-seekers can also take part in a ‘scramble net challenge’, where you scale a five metre-high cargo net, which is set an incline so you are nearly climbing upside down. To book, or for more details, call 01772 872000, or e-mail info@brockholes.org
