Summit Roots Corporate Experiences - Team Building

Outdoor Team Development

Build stronger teams by sharing meaningful experiences together.

Forget the forced team-building exercises.

Our outdoor team days give colleagues the chance to step away from their usual working environment, have fun, spend time together and share an experience that feels natural and enjoyable.

Walking side by side creates space for conversation, while learning and exploring together helps people build confidence and strengthen relationships.

Your day will include:

Guided walks tailored to your team
Navigation using map and compass, digital tools and the natural landscape
Wildlife, ecology, geology, local history and mythology
Time to talk, reflect and reconnect

The result is a day that's enjoyable and purposeful helping people get to know each other differently, build confidence and create shared memories.

Whether you're welcoming new team members, celebrating a success or simply investing in your people, we'll create an experience that works for your group.

Leadership Team Away Days

Change the environment. Change the conversation.

Some of the best conversations don't happen around a boardroom table.

Walking together through an inspiring landscape creates a more relaxed environment for open conversation, different perspectives and fresh thinking.

There is something about being side by side, rather than sitting across a table, that can change the way people listen, contribute and think.

Drawing on my experience in senior corporate roles, I work with leadership teams to create structured outdoor sessions around the issues that matter to them.

Before the day, we'll spend time understanding what you want to achieve. Where appropriate, this can include a planning session and review of relevant information under NDA, allowing the day to be shaped around your priorities.

The day might help your team to:

Look at strategic challenges from a different perspective
Explore new ideas and opportunities
Improve collaboration and decision making
Build greater alignment around shared goals
Have the conversations that are difficult to make space for in the office
Finish with clear actions and a shared sense of direction

The walking doesn't get in the way of the conversation, it helps create the environment for it.

Sessions can be delivered throughout the year, with routes and sheltered options selected to suit the weather and your team's needs.

Outdoor Wellbeing

Give your people permission to slow down

Modern working life rarely leaves room to think, breathe or simply be present.

Constant notifications, back-to-back meetings and long hours can leave people feeling mentally tired, disconnected and running on empty. Time spent in nature offers something increasingly rare, the opportunity to pause, reset and return with renewed energy and perspective.

At Summit Roots, we create outdoor wellbeing experiences that help people reconnect with themselves, with their colleagues and with the natural world.

These aren't boot camps or endurance challenges. They're carefully designed days that encourage people to slow their pace, notice more, and experience the proven benefits of spending time outdoors.

What to expect

Each wellbeing experience is tailored to your organisation and will include:

Guided walks in beautiful natural surroundings
Nature-based mindfulness and quiet reflection
Forest bathing and sensory awareness
Wildlife and nature interpretation
Time for conversation away from the workplace
Space to simply enjoy being outdoors

There is no pressure to achieve a summit or cover a certain distance. The focus is on creating an enjoyable experience that leaves people feeling refreshed, reconnected and re-energised.

Why it works

Research consistently shows that spending time in nature can help to:

Reduce stress and mental fatigue
Improve mood and emotional wellbeing
Increase focus and creativity
Encourage better conversations and stronger relationships
Build resilience and support long-term wellbeing

A different kind of wellbeing day

Having spent many years in corporate leadership roles, I understand the pressures that people and organisations face. As a qualified Mental Health First Aider and Mountain Leader, I've seen first-hand how time in nature can help people regain perspective, build resilience and return to work feeling more connected and engaged.

Sometimes the greatest benefit comes from something very simple:

stepping away from the workplace, slowing down and giving people time to breathe
