Do activities get cancelled?/What happens?
We will always try to give as much notice as possible if an activity can’t go ahead. It could be the river is too high for canoeing or we are expecting weather warnings for wind. Sometimes things are out of our control and we may have to cancel with very short notice. In all cases we will try to offer an alternative activity or location. In the event of a cancelled activity by Biggar Adventure any money paid will be refunded.
