Outdoor Adventures: Blue Lake Buzz Day

Outdoor Adventures offers, The Blue Lake Buzz Day from Fairbourne, in West Wales. This is a unique combination of activities in a totally unique location, an extra “WOW” factor for your school activity trip in Wales.

Outdoor Adventures are the only outdoor activity provider in Wales who have legal access to this fantastic location. The Blue Lake is situated high on a mountain side overlooking Fairbourne on the Mid-Wales coast. This is equally an ideal school activity day, as it is an amazing team building day that provides all the elements that a good team build needs. The day involves: Climbing & Abseiling, Mine Exploration and the the famous Zip Wire into The Blue Lake

School Activity:

The lake was formed once the site was abandoned and a small stream started to flood the large vertical shaft. The lake gets it’s distinctive blue colour from the copper impurities within the slate. This full day of activities is an amazing opportunity for your pupils to experience a combination of activities and industrial history that few if any other school or youth group will be able to in such a stunning location.

During The Blue Lake Buzz Day your family/group can experience Climbing and an Abseil on the actual slate quarry face that was worked by the miners hundreds of years ago. Next we will go Mine exploring in our very own mine and you will see for yourself the conditions that the mine worker had to live and work in. The mine it’s self contains artefacts and features left behind by the miners of years ago. We round the day off with the adrenaline pumping 70 foot zip wire into the Blue Lake it’s self. The site has some of the best views over Cardigan Bay towards the Llyn Peninsular in North Wales.

Access to this incredible site is closely monitored and regulated so it is a unique opportunity for your pupils to enjoy something special. We supply all the specialist equipment so all that you will need to bring is: Swim suits, towel, change of dry cloths, old trainers and waterproofs. However we do have a limited supply of waterproofs for anyone who has been a little forgetful.

This is an amazing adventure and a great day out. If you are considering The Blue Lake Buzz Day as an option for your school activity residential in Wales, then please contact us to discuss accommodation options. If you are thinking of The Blue Lake just as an activity day, please contact us early to check availability, as this location does tend to get booked up early.
