As schools look ahead to the new academic year, September and October are the perfect opportunity for rewarding residential trips. Located in the heart of the Derbyshire countryside, Mount Cook Adventure Centre offers the ideal trip for outdoor learning, team-building, and personal development.
Mount Cook offers school trips with a full programme of adventurous activities with highly trained instructors. Push your students limits in their onsite quarry with rock climbing and abseiling or build teamwork and communication with high hopes and archery tag!
Key Stage 2 can also supplement the curriculum with History packages where your students will travel back in time and experience life as a Roman Invader, a Viking Explorer or a Prehistoric Britain.
Our modern, eco-friendly outdoor centre has comfy en suite bedrooms, excellent facilities, including accessible bedrooms and fun Glamping Pods!
