We have routes dedicated to each award level Bronze, Silver and Gold.

This ensures that when students progress through the levels, they have not done the same route before.

Bronze routes allow the students to practice their new found navigation skills Silver routes allow the students to build on the skills they learnt at Bronze level and begins to prepare them for Gold Level.

Gold routes allow the students to show how they have mastered their navigation skills.

We have options on all routes to make it an expedition, where 60% of the time must be spent Journeying, or an exploration, which allows the students to spend 60% of their time exploring.

All this means that we can cater to all fitness levels and that students have the choice between the two different types of Adventurous Journey.
