High Ropes, Caving & Bouldering

If you’ve got a head for heights and a sense of adventure, put your skills to the test with our exciting outdoor activities. Take on the High Ropes, explore our caving experience, and challenge yourself on our multi-dimensional bouldering wall.

what is it?

Once you’re equipped with a helmet and harness, you’re ready to begin your adventure. Test your nerve on our thrilling 35-metre High Ropes course, where you’ll navigate obstacles, platforms, tunnels and climbing ropes suspended high above the ground. As the course moves with you, every step brings a new challenge.

Continue the adventure underground as you slide, crawl, twist and turn your way through our 54-metre indoor caving system, navigating dark tunnels and tight spaces. Friends and family can still follow your journey via cameras linked to an external viewing screen.

For those who love to climb, our multi-dimensional bouldering wall provides a fresh challenge for all abilities, helping you develop strength, agility and problem-solving skills. With routes regularly updated, there’s always something new to conquer.

My family experienced the Hyper Bowling last week. My children absolutely loved it and wouldn’t stop talking about it, it was such great fun & good how any age can win. I was impressed by the price and how clean everywhere was…

Lee Napier

The staff! I’d still use Active Hyde’s gym if the facilities were rubbish and the price was high. There is always a cheerful person on hand to provide help and advice, both on site and on the phone.

Mark

10/10 great facilities and location. Excellent instructors and friendly staff.

Janet

The gym and reception staff are very friendly and knowledgeable, always happy to assist… I would highly recommend the gym to anyone who is looking for a friendly, professionally run gym with a great atmosphere that caters to all ages and abilities.

Mary Heaney

I am grateful to the staff at Tameside Wellness Centre for understanding my difficulties, especially since they are invisible. But believing and supporting and being kind to me has made me more determined to continue with my passion for life and remaining active as best as I can…
