Adventure in Perthshire

Come for the weekend and explore the adventures this area has to offer.

Most popular is white water rafting through rugged highland scenery on some of the best white waters in the UK

Wet n' Wild is a good description of River Bugs, try to imaging sitting on an inflatable armchair, clad in a wetsuit and armed with flippers on hand and feet - and descending fast white water - great fun and something to talk about over a wee dram.

Only in this area can you try Sphereing - strapped into a giant Sphere (like a 14 foot hamster ball), taking a wild and bouncing tumble down a hillside. A bit like bungee jumping inside a washing machine.

More of a beach person? Ever tried Land Yachting...

Sailing a 3 wheeled buggy along the beach of St. Andrews, the Tentsmuir sands or any other location you fancy could be just the adrenalin boost you were looking for. It’s environmentally friendly as well, no petrol – just wind power (book directly with www.blownawaylandyachts.co.uk)

A forty metre plunge from the first purpose-built bridge Bungee platform in the UK.An awesome, adrenaline-charged drop towards a famous river then a winch back to safety.Throw in some of the most memorable scenery in the world. Add ancient woodlands and dramatic landscapes hewn by Ice Age, then you have Highland Fling Bungee, set in the adventure playground of Highland Perthshire, in the heart of Scotland.
