Things that Helen finds spooky, creepy, eerie and, erm, witchy! 🤔😂...

Team building, with a twist. 🧭

The GeoAdventures Cache Dash gets colleagues outdoors, working together to navigate a route and find hidden caches in the countryside of the National Forest.

A different kind of team challenge for businesses looking for an outdoor activity.

Our new GeoAdventures jackets have arrived. 🤩 Look how happy we are - us geographers do love a good coat!

We’ve been out testing them this afternoon and we can confirm that we’re officially ready for our corporate team-building events - our first booking is next month!

If you want to find out more about getting your team out for a GeoAdventure, get in touch.

After a summer break, we’re back! 🎉

Our guided GeoAdventures will return in the spring, but for now we’re busy getting ready for our Cache Dash corporate team-building events…and our first event is already booked for October!

Today we picked out new gilets and waterproof coats (an exciting thing for two geographers!) and spent some time creating a video for students at our local college, who are using GeoAdventures as part of a practical assignment. 🎥

If you’re looking for something a little different for your team, our Cache Dash events are suitable for groups of 8–40 people.

🌳 Team building with a difference... 🌳

We're really excited that our GeoAdventures team-building events are starting to gather momentum.

Last week we met with a business to plan a GeoAdventures Cache Dash for their team, and we're looking forward to welcoming them to the National Forest.

Between us, Katy and I have over 45 years' experience leading groups outdoors. We've seen first-hand how exploring somewhere new, solving problems and working together can help people build confidence, strengthen relationships and, most importantly, have fun.

That's exactly what inspired our GeoAdventures team-building sessions.

Over around three hours, teams work together to solve clues, find caches and explore the beautiful National Forest. It's a chance to step away from the office, think differently and enjoy some friendly competition. If you'd like to make more of the experience, we can also include lunch.

If you're looking for a team-building activity that's a little different, we'd love to hear from you. Drop us a message to find out more. 🧭🌳

Where's Wally... GeoAdventures style! 🌳😂

Planning our new Cache Dash has involved disappearing into the undergrowth, climbing trees and arriving home with leaves and twigs in our hair. 🍃😂 We might have got a little carried away... 🤭

The Cache Dash itself won't require quite as much scrambling as our planning sessions, although you should be prepared for the odd bramble, a bit of uneven ground and plenty of exploring!

Fancy giving it a go?

🌳What a fantastic first season we've had! 🌳

When we set up GeoAdventures, we hoped there might be other people who'd enjoy getting outdoors with us to discover the fascinating stories behind the landscapes of the National Forest. We had no idea how many people would share our enthusiasm!

Over the past few months we've:

➡ Led 10 GeoAdventures, took part in the National Forest Walking Festival and hosted two private bookings
➡ Walked 29.8 miles together
➡ Met 63 wonderful GeoAdventurers
➡ Found 9 geocaches (and had one spectacular geocaching fail! 🤦‍♀️)
➡ Eaten copious amounts of chocolate (especially orange KitKats!) and the odd hot cross bun 🍫
➡ Taken over 300 photos
➡ Shared countless stories about the history, geography and wildlife that make the National Forest such an amazing place

We've loved meeting so many lovely people, seeing familiar faces return, and watching new friendships form along the way. We love seeing people stop to appreciate something they've never noticed before or discover a hidden geocache that they've walked past many times. Sometimes we need to stop, slow down and just look around us.

A huge thank you to everyone who's joined us this season. Your enthusiasm, curiosity and sense of adventure have made every GeoAdventure a genuine pleasure.

We're taking a short summer break while the weather is a little too enthusiastic ☀️🥵, but we'll be back in the autumn with more GeoAdventures, including our new Cache Dash events. We can't wait to explore with you again! 🌳🥾

The last of our 10 GeoAdventures took place this week. Branston Leas - a beautiful setting. It got hotter as the morning went on, but fortunately we were finished by midday. 🌞
