The Situation


Set against a backdrop of rugged cliffs, forest trails, and sweeping views of the Derwent Valley, this adventure day offers a perfect mix of challenge, exploration, and fun in the great outdoors.

Under the guidance of our instructors, you’ll take part in an exciting range of activities that could include rock climbing, abseiling, bouldering, zip line, orienteering and team challenges—all tailored to your group’s confidence and experience level.

Between activities, there’s time to enjoy the stunning scenery and learn more about the area’s unique history and geology. The session is designed to encourage teamwork, resilience, and adventure—making it ideal for schools, youth groups, families, and corporate teams alike.

By the end of the day, you’ll leave with tired arms, big smiles, and a real sense of achievement. The Black Rocks Adventure Day is the perfect way to experience the spirit of outdoor adventure that Acclimbatize is known for.
