Here at yellowfoot we've created the thrill of the outdoor experience and challenge through an impressive high
ropes course. The yellowfoot difference is that you won't get covered in mud or have to trek miles to 'enjoy' it!
Set in our 4 acres of grounds the ropes course offers groups the opportunity to work through challenging
situations where overcoming personal and limiting beliefs through the support and encouragement of fellow
team members really can pull a team together.
"We wanted a team challenge where everyone was involved, that was a big ask as we're
such a diverse group. The day at yellowfoot with the team there was a resounding success and something that still talked about."
Ruth: RLF
Used to develop teams ability to work together, help them
navigate through change or for a fun break form the daily grind the ropes course has many possibly uses.
The Climbing Walls Scale our angled wall, be challenged and reach your goal! Once at the top take a moment
to enjoy the view, get your breath back and then realise how high you've climbed! Once you're
ready you will then be gently lowered to the ground. Climbing is a great activity that
encourages communication between all participants and develops self esteem. Everyone stays
engaged looking after ropes and general safety. For a greater personal challenge the
vertical wall offers a far more demanding climb.
High All Aboard First of all find a volunteer, sound familiar? The challenge
is to get 3 more people to scale the centre pole, then stand on a platform that is 50cm square,
yes all together at the same time and did we mention that the pole it 40 feet high? Once at
the top, the goal is to link arms and lean back then simply let go. You'll then be gently lowered
back to Earth. This obstacle encourages communication between all participants, trust,
camaraderie and motivational input from the group. It's also a really good challenge for teams
to work through as a new project with various roles and responsibilities and measures for
success. Everyone's engages throughout the exercise and everyone (that chooses to) will have
the opportunity to climb.
Cowtail Course This apparatus is challenging for all levels.
Participants climb/scale the differing obstacles including cargo net, wall traverse,
tarzan swing, big beam and the wobbly bridge. At the end of the apparatus the participants
are lowered to the ground. This obstacle encourages determination, self believe and the
ability to see a task to its completion. Its also a great way to look at coaching and
leadership styles.
Balance platform A huge table top balanced over a log. the challenge
is to get everyone balanced then move keeping the table balanced. Really fun activity that
shows how difficult it is to work together and how even when you say you'll let someone else
manage the task it's still really easy to try and help, which here on the table doesn't! A
great way to demonstrate how behaviour delivers the result not words!
Our ropes course can easily keep a group of 60 people busy for an entire afternoon,
we've also had groups of 300 here rotating around various challenges in competitive events
taking advantage of our grounds and facilities.
It's easy to add in various activities to a ropes challenge. If you're planning a
whole day to develop team performance and moral we've many more activities that in a fun way
engage the team challenging them to deliver results together. If the focus in on purely fun
then again we've got plenty to keep your team laughing out loud.
