The Huon Challenge

Situated 30 minutes south-west of Hobart, the beautiful Huon Valley is easily accessible by road, yet retains the beauty, charm and heritage of a bygone era. The natural beauty of the area is evident with pristine rivers meandering through valleys bordered by National Parks.

Our Huon Challenge program is a day full of excitement and adrenalin, interspersed with time spent among the natural beauty of the rainforests in the South West World Heritage Area. Activities can include jet boat rides, whitewater rafting, kayaking, abseiling, mountain biking and more.

The day begins with the exhilaration of a shallow white water jet boat ride on the Huon River. From the thrills of 360 degree turns, to the peace and quiet of drifting alongside Huon Pine trees and overhanging vegetation, this is an ideal way for a group to see and learn about this idyllic part of Tasmania.

Beach Olympics

Beach Olympics is a great way to bring staff together and build teamwork in a friendly yet competitive environment.

Participants are arranged into 'Countries' who compete with each other during a series of fun events. All the activities employ experiential learning and are designed to improve teamwork, communication and leadership, while being memorable and above all lots of fun.

The events are also designed to maximise participation and promote group inclusion, rather than excluding people due to physical or other constraints. They range from flag races, sand-skiing, sand sculptures through to tunnel digging, multi-sport games, and more.

Fear Factor

Fear has dominated our life in the 21st century. Fear stops us from achieving our best moments in life. It makes us fall short of what we are capable of doing. 

Our Fear Factor program is designed to overcome personal fears by allowing participants to recognise and have an awareness of their own fear signals. When we feel fear, we feel we do not have a choice in how to respond to it, we feel helpless and become victims of circumstance. By recognising and learning our own fear signals, we are free to make the choices we want to make.

The Fear Factor program can include any or all of the following:

• Cave Squeeze
• Abseiling
• Tightrope Walk
• Hockey Goal Challenge
• Animal Mess Cleanup
• Crate Climbing
• Barber Challenge
• Blindfold Challenge
• Smoke Room
• Box of Flies
• Disgusting Food
• Arachnids and Reptiles
• Diving Platform Challenge
• Seal Launches (Kayaks)

Top Gear

Our Top Gear program is an exciting and competitive team-based range of activities based on the popular BBC television series of the same name. Participants will spend a grand day sightseeing rural Tasmania while competing with each other in a series of automotive challenges, all the while racing against time.

Teams may be required to successfully reverse a vehicle and trailer through a series of obstacles, compete to reach a destination using the least fuel, reach a location using only GPS devices, change a tyre along the way, or maybe create a video presentation about your vehicle.

There are no speed-based challenges in this program, and participants are encouraged to have a good look around some of the charming parts of Tasmania away from the highways.

The Top Gear program can include any or all of the following: Trailer reversing, tyre changing, navigation challenge, blindfold navigation challenge, fuel economy challenge, video presentation, go-karts, Daytona video-racing, remote control cars, and more.

Thrill-seekers may like to include quad-bike, motorcycle or jet-boat challenges as well.

The Amazing Race

The Amazing Race is a multi-activity team-based competition based on the popular BBC television series of the same name. Teams compete with each other in a series of mental and physical challenges, all the while racing against time. This is a great way to spend a day exploring an unfamiliar city, and anyone can participate as no special skill, athletic ability or experience is required.

The actual content of the Amazing Race is tailored to suit each groups age and gender mix, as well as fitting in with any desired corporate outcomes. Previous Amazing Races have included jet boat rides, go-karting, sky diving, Laser Skirmish, indoor or outdoor rock climbing, kayaking, rafting, abseiling, geocaching, helicopter simulators, clothing swaps, an Aussie 'Haka' competition, lawn bowls, golf and mini-golf, two-handed sawing, fire juggling, and just about anything else you can think of.

Scavenger Hunt

A scavenger hunt is a fun and active way to get to know a city or resort location. Many corporate groups enjoy our Scavenger Hunts as they utilise everyday business skills such as problem-solving, creativity, time management, prioritization and decision-making.

Our Scavenger Hunts can take place anywhere, and will fit into whatever time frame your group has. We have several different types of Scavenger Hunts to choose from:

Standard - an interesting, humorous and intriguing list of items to be located. No money can be spent!

Extreme - for the group who has seen it all, this is the next level of Scavenger Hunting. Participants are given more difficult items to obtain, and there may be some 'extreme activities' required to complete the Hunt.

Trade Show - a great way to entertain trade show attendees, and make the show more productive for exhibitors. Participants must visit various stands at the Trade Show to complete the Hunt.

Limousine - for the group that doesn't like walking, why not Scavenger Hunt in luxury! Allow your participants to be transported from location to location in the comfort of stretch limousines.

Wilderness - Scavenger Hunts need not be based in urban locations. Why not facilitate exploration of a wilderness area by running a Scavenger Hunt in the heart of the Tasmanian wilderness.

Custom - most of our Scavenger Hunts have been created by previous clients. If you don't see a Scavenger Hunt you like, why not ask us to create a dynamic and enjoyable Scavenger Hunt specifically for your group.

Whitewater Rafting

The essence of a corporate whitewater rafting adventure is to create a day where the group can experience things together. The rafts themselves encourage people to get to know their companions, with the beautiful scenery of a wild rainforest or the magnificent Derwent Valley as the backdrop. Sections of fast-flowing rapids will get hearts pumping, while lazier sections encourage water fights and other horseplay.

Depending upon the time of year, we can raft on the Picton or Derwent Rivers, or the Mersey River in the state's North.

Abseiling

An abseiling experience makes for a unique and memorable incentive program for the more adventurous corporate group.

Abseiling (German: abseilen, "to rope down"), rappelling in American and British English, is the controlled descent down a rope in rock climbing, mountaineering, caving, and canyoneering; the technique is used when a cliff or slope is too steep and/or dangerous to descend without protection. Abseiling is used chiefly in British English, while other Anglophone countries use different terms.

We have several suitable abseil locations in Tasmania, including the world's highest commercial abseil at the Gordon Dam near Strathgordon.

Ropes Course

Put your fitness, concentration and skill to the test on the High Ropes Course. Classified as an extreme sport, participants are suspended in a series of rope bridges, netting and platforms high above the ground, and must work together to get through the course and arrive safely on the ground.

Each participant is fitted with a safety harness and helmet, as well as being suitably briefed in safety by a qualified facilitator. The day begins with some ground-level challenges, which gets the team working together and discovering levels of comfort and trust. They will then move onto higher challenges, which bring an increased level of satisfaction and achievement for the team when completed.

This activity is exciting and safe for a wide range of ages. Participants will experience the satisfaction of completing difficult goals, working as part of a team to achieve a common result, and experiencing the feeling of risk-taking in a safe and controlled environment.

This program can take place over a few hours or a full day. We can cater for groups of up to 300 people, and provide all our own equipment and staff. Snacks and drinks can be included if requested.

Kayaking

Kayaking is an excellent way to improve employee motivation and productivity while allowing participants to see Tasmania's attractions and natural wonders from the unique perspective of a kayak. Team dynamics are exposed and comfort zones expanded when a group is placed in a new environment. Smaller group sizes and close proximity to participants allows us to guide the group dynamic to achieve the desired corporate outcomes.

Whether paddling off the East coast of Tasmania, amongst the Huon Pines, Celery Top Pines and Leatherwoods on the Picton River or exploring Lake Peddar in the highlands, kayaking as a fantastic inclusion into your next team-building program.

This need not take an entire day - depending upon location, we can incorporate a half-day of paddling into almost any program.
