Safety Briefing

It is important that everyone who makes use of Campbase Adventures Ltd services for Mountain Biking (both bike hire and uplift service) understands the risks and that you have made your booking on the basis that you undertake the hire at your own risk.

Children aged 17 and under need to be always supervised by a responsible adult (over 18 years of age). Children can not sign or accept any waivers; these must be signed by a parent or guardian.

Mountain Biking is an extreme sport; trails include large obstacles and technical features, which can be physically testing, and there is high risk of injury and death when undertaking such activities.

You understand and accept that we always advise the wearing of the correct protective equipment (body armour, goggles, and gloves) when undertaking the adventure activity, and that helmets are a mandatory requirement. Read and adhere to all advice signs while using the trails.

Read and follow the mountain biker’s responsibility code. Copies are available on our website and onsite at our base.

It is your responsibility to ensure your equipment is fit for purpose.

The trails you may make use of during the rental of our Mountain Bikes are done so at your choosing and at your own risk. The trails are not created or maintained by Campbase Adventures Ltd, and therefore we have no liability or control over their condition. The below is for information purposes only:
