We pride ourselves on pouring passion into every session and ensuring that people from all walks of life have the opportunity to reap the benefits of achieving something new in the outdoors.

Photos

It is no problem to take photos at BAC, so long as everyone in your group is happy to be in a photo. We would ask that if you are posting to social media that you tag us. If you don’t have a camera, you can request that a member of our team take a photo and send it to you following the session. This will be at the instructor’s discretion.
