About
We are Peak Instruction; an outdoor activity and training provider owned and run by Pete & Beth Knight.
We have our hub in the beautiful Peak District but can operate across the UK. Our aim is simple, to give great service and deliver safe, engaging and enjoyable outdoor activities. We run public activities regularly throughout the year, ranging from a few hours of caving to a blast along our zip wires. We specialise in private, bespoke bookings. From family taster sessions to individual coaching, we can tailor an activity to suit your exact requirements. We are specialists in Caving and Mine Exploration across the UK and can lead and coach at any level of the sport. We also run courses and zip wire activities at our private woodland site near Whaley Bridge in the Peak District. We staff each activity or course with the most experienced and trusted instructors and coaches from our close team. Individuals, families and large groups are all welcome and we can provide photos and videos of your activity to share and remember your day. We have a huge range of activities available; abseiling, archery, bushcraft, bouldering, climbing, caving, mining, weaseling, stream scrambling, gorge walking, tyrolean traverses, walking & navigation and zip wires. Our website gives comprehensive details of what we can offer. Our website gives comprehensive details of what we can offer.
Caving
Caving is our primary passion and Pete holds the highest qualification available in the UK, as well as being a trainer/assessor for new cave leaders and a Team Leader of a cave rescue team. We run public taster sessions to vertical trips or bespoke underground adventures and instructor training and assessment at all levels, in both caves and abandoned mines. If you want to experience caving, we are the people to speak to.
Walker Brow Woods
We have our own private activity site in Whaley Bridge. The 8-acre woodland is equipped with an archery range, bushcraft camp and our 3 PeakZip zip wires. At this site we also deliver team building events, rock climbing and tyrolean crossings. The wood has private parking, a composting toilet and plenty of nature!
PeakZip
Unique to the Peak District, PeakZip is a series of zip wires crossing old quarry pits in our woodland. The activity lasts around 2 hours and you can have several goes on the zips in that time. The Main Camp Zip is the warm up, a 20m crossing we use to get everyone used to the safety systems and happy with their kit. You need pull yourself (or be pulled) up to the top of this gently inclined cable, before letting go and gliding back to the start. The next step will be the Flying Fox, our very steep 50m plummet into the quarry bay. You’ll hurtle towards the floor but thankfully, we’ll be slowing you down just at the right moment! Then it’s off to the Big Zipper, a 50m crossing in the glorious open air. Feel the wind in your hair as you roar down from the highest point on the site.
