Team Building Activities

Team Development

We base our team building activities and team development programmes around exercises which although real – with real rewards for success and real penalties for failure – do not rely on a particular expertise or skill. We do this so that the underlying team building elements are highlighted without any specific expertise getting in the way.

Join us here in Derbyshire or contact us about facilitation at a venue of your convenience.

Team Building Events

Acclimbatize has a 30′ mobile climbing wall and archery activity that can be used as centre pieces to an activity programme set up at a destination of your choice. Team building events with Acclimbatize are dynamic, powerful and maintain good tempo. Choose from over 30 engaging activities – see our onsite activity services page

Our ‘Team Challenge Tasks’ and team building activities are specifically designed with the purpose of bringing all team members together to work towards achieving a common goal. We ensure that the team building tasks themselves are fun and memorable. By doing this, we believe that the associated learning is also memorable.

Outdoor Activities

Working co-operatively and cohesively as a team is a theme that runs strongly through all of our outdoor activities. Activity without reflection doesn’t lead to the best learning. We therefore build in time slots when you can review the way your team is working and perhaps agree to whatever changes would make for better results.

All of our Team Building Tasks are transportable and can be easily set up to support learning programmes at a location of your convenience. These events can help maintain focus, raise attainment and highlight the importance of working together through a direct and powerful approach to learning.

Brilliant team building session Another brilliant session with Paul. This time a desk based team building day for our company. Everyone really enjoyed it and some great learning points from the activities. We thoroughly recommend Acclimatize for team building Thank you.

An exhilarating experience - well worth trying. Everyone really enjoyed our morning of abseiling in a beautiful area of the Peak District. Sam was very professional and everyone felt safe in his hands. We had multiple goes of abseiling along with scrambling up the rock faces. What a great day out we had, thanks Sam.

Brilliant caving trips. 6 days of caving in the Dales and Peak District. Absolutely brilliant! We've used Acclimbatize a several times, every time was a huge success. Great planning and delivery, already thinking about the next one!

Incredible Outdoor Rock Climbing and Abseiling Experience in Peak District Our program did Rock Climbing and Abseiling with Chris and his team in late September. It was such an incredible experience, as none of us have ever tried outdoor rock climbing before. They were thorough and helpful, and it was great for teambuilding in our program. Chris and his team were funny and kepy great conversation with us. Highly reccomended!

Rock Climbing Trip September 2025 This was such an excellent experience! Our tour guides, Chris, Daljeet, Clara, and Andy P. were very encouraging and funny. They lightened the mood with jokes, but pushed us and showed us the ropes (pun intended) as well. The climbs themselves were tricky but manageable, and it's really more about getting the experience than making it to the top. They may have inspired a future in rock climbing!

Howling winds no deterrent to climbing Had 2 days with these guys well worth it. Despite torrential rain and howling winds they kept us busy climbing, abseiling caving and gorge walking.

Excellent, knowledgable, friendly climbing guide Booked a solo rock climbing day and had an ideal experience. Can’t praise my guide, Chas, enough. I am an intermediate climber traveling from the US. I didn’t want to travel with gear nor feel overwhelmed by climbing in an unfamiliar area. So booking a guide made sense. My guide, Chas, was literally the most knowledgeable outdoor climber I have ever met. In addition to belaying me on a ton of routes, he was happy to share his deep experience with setting ropes, trad climbing, knots, climbing techniques, etc. Despite being probably 30 years older than me, I’m sure Chas is a better climber. This guy is a legend. I highly recommend!

A great experience in some beautiful settings! What an absolutely wonderful experience! I felt skeptical booking this for my family of 4 (2 daughters aged 9 and 5) as I felt uncertain as to whether the team could cater to all ages. However, the team and experience surpassed all of my expectations. Every team member we came across was so lovely and friendly and our trip leader, Matt, was outstanding - he showed such patience and kindness when my daughter was nervous with the abseiling part of the event. The kids thoroughly enjoyed the experience from start to finish (we did half a day of rock climbing and canoeing) and both myself and my husband felt it was worth every penny - a great experience in some beautiful settings.

Brilliant first ever climb and abseiling! We went scrambling, rock climbing and abseiling with Andy. Four children and two adults. It was amazing! The company do everything right. Communication was brilliant and they asked what we wanted out of the experience. Andy had so much knowledge and our experience was fantastic. I highly recommend this company. Fully supportive, great instructions felt safe and able to enjoy the whole afternoon.

Simply choose your selection of component parts from our wide range of activities. Your selected activities will then be incorporated into your event – applying an appropriate scenario or theme around the tasks you have selected may add a dynamic dimension and help cement your event together.
We ensure our events are fully engaging and inclusive of all abilities – we do this by deliberately factoring in a variety of roles on all tasks.
Task skills and workshops are merely tools for developing and discovering management techniques.

Frequently Asked Questions

A range of tasks which are varied and chosen specifically to engage all personality types are prepared and readied for your team. The tasks are each designed to either improve performance, break down social barriers, build trust, test problem solving skills and build trust and team cohesion

We have over 30 tasks - some really testing challenges for our corporate teams and bright sparks, other tasks are designed to simply 'break the ice' Each task is (ideally) designed for 8 people. So given the location and ideal space we can comfortable engage 200 plus people on 'Multi Task' style events.

Some tasks require balance and co-ordination, some tasks involve some running but the vast majority require thinking power and good communication . Therefore fitness levels are not that important.

We are prepared to travel to most places in the UK for large events.
