Whether you are looking for a school programme, social club event, corporate team bonding trips, or just a fun day out, we can offer you affordable, reliable fun. We look forward to spending time with you in the outdoors.
For the last 45 years we have been a leader in providing responsive and impactful Outdoor Education and Recreation programmes. From Banks Penninsula in the East and Charleston in the West we can collaborate with you to bring your programme to life. At the Boyle we can offer a variety of different style camps helping you create sequential programmes that build on the skills already gained by your ākonga. Utilise the Boyle Lodge as your base or get out there and spend it in tents around the campfire. You can even have a bit of both! All in the beautiful mountains of the Lewis Pass
