What Can I Expect
It's a day out in the countryside with a difference when you go off roading in the Cotswolds! These experiences take place at the Cotswold Water Park, where there are lots of natural and man-made obstacles for you to tackle in your 4x4 vehicle.
Your experience begins with a warm welcome and a brief safety briefing from your expert instructor. Next, you will climb into the driver’s seat of a dual-controlled 4x4 vehicle to get comfortable with the controls.
And it's an iconic 4x4 at that. You'll be tackling the tricky terrain at this site just south of Cirencester in a Land Rover Discovery. These trusty Landys are the workhorses of the countryside the world over. As home on safari in the Savannah as they are here in the Cotswolds, you can't do better than a Discovery. We can pretty much bet you'll bottle it before the car ever does!
You'll find this off road centre in amongst the 150 lakes that make up Cotswold Water Park. It's picturesque and challenging, making it a great place to try off roading, whether you're a complete beginner or already have some experience.
There's a definite art to off road driving. Nothing is ever rushed and you often don't even get out of first gear, but when you're faced with the off-camber scoop on the soft ground of Lakeside Ridge, there's plenty of adrenaline involved without the need for speed. Keep your speed up on Windrush Bank if you dare, but there's a steep drop on either side if you. Watch out for the trees when you negotiate Copse Gully and beware of losing traction on your way down from the Monstrous Molehills section!
This is off roading in the Cotswolds at its best. Sessions last for around an hour. With lots of obstacles for all levels of driver, a great car and superb in-car teaching, there'll be happy faces all round at this off roading centre near Cirencester.
