Bringing out the best in people, developing the most positive elements of the human character, consistent with our core values: Integrity, Responsibility, Resilience, Compassion, Service and Human Potential. Outward Bound journeys are both internal and external journeys of discovery.

We believe all people have the right to discover, develop and achieve their potential. We work in the natural world, allowing people to expand their awareness and appreciation for the environment. Our practices respect the areas we work in, leaving minimal impact so that they can be enjoyed by future generations.
