overview

Absolute Adventure's team of qualified assessors are on hand to manage the adventurous journey section of Bronze, Silver and Gold award. Using our extensive knowledge of mountainous and desert regions, we have designed expedition areas to challenge all abilities.

Our UAE and Omani trade licences allow us to operate expeditions in some of the most beautiful and remote locations in the region. Local expeditions can take place on foot (hiking), kayak, mountain bike or camelback (additional training required).

All of our routes are fully risk assessed and give groups the opportunity to practice real navigation skills using clearly marked, customised route maps. Our staff are trained in remote supervision techniques to ensure that expeditions are in line with the ethos of the award.
