Caledonian Adventures, owned and run by Stewart Richardson, an outdoor instructor who has been providing outdoor training courses to clubs and individuals for many years. Through years of experience Stewart has found that all clients are looking for flexibility in their training and no 2 groups are the same therefore, all of our courses can be structured to suit the clients requirements. We have many venues to choose from for our outdoor training and skills courses, and with all of our multi activity days based at Gulabin Lodge in the highlands of Perthshire, this is an ideal venue for residential courses also.
