Safety

Checking saftey equipmentThe Adventure Activity Standards (AAS) have been established as minimum standards for organisations conducting outdoor recreation activities for dependant groups (where participants have a level of dependence upon the leader(s).

The concept required appropriate consultation with commercial and community involvement so that a single and consistent set of guidelines could be established and agreed by the contributors, provide clarity to the sector and to the external stakeholder of safe and sustainable practices in the outdoors.

A consortium of four government agencies, Sport and Recreation Victoria (SRV), Department of Sustainability and Environment (DSE), Parks Victoria (PV) and Tourism Victoria (TV) support and fund the project. The funding consortium has an ongoing role on the steering committee for the project ensuring that the AAS are endorsed and recognised by the Victorian State Government.

All of our activities adhere to Australian Adventure Activity Standards and our friendly guides and instructors hold current qualifications in their relevant fields as well as first-aid training.  They are there to ensure the utmost safety of our clients. 

Standard operating procedures are tailored to each individual activity and site. Where safety is concerned we believe in attention to detail.
