Team Building in Winchester
The city of Winchester, in Hampshire, was once the capital of England. It is situated on the edge of the South Downs National Park, and there is no shortage of hotels and event venues in these beautiful surroundings. Winchester is steeped in history, making it an ideal location for our Hidden Quest Treasure Hunt. The city’s Great Hall has been home to the mysterious King Arthur’s Round Table for over 700 years, and the stunning Cathedral contains the crypts of several kings and the longest medieval nave in Europe. The city was also the location of the first public library in the UK. We provide teams with an iPad loaded with a Treasure Hunt that will take them to hot spots around this interesting city. In these locations there are questions and challenges. You can even keep tabs on the position of other teams, which adds a fun competitive element to this team building event. Start and finish locations are completely flexible, often we start at a hotel and finish at a good local restaurant. The Hidden Quest Treasure hunt is just one of the versions of this enjoyable team building event, and we offer others with a variety of story lines, including spies and those based on well-known films.
Team Building Events in Winchester
Because Winchester is a rural location, there are plenty of outdoor event spaces where we can set up a range of team building events. A good way of enjoying the countryside with some fun activities is our Country Sports package. There are more than a dozen different activities that you can choose from, including shooting, driving, and animal handling options. Given Winchester’s history archery is a good choice, and there is something very satisfying about the thud that an arrow makes when it lands in the straw target, also known as the boss. Duck Herding is extremely popular. You will meet our experienced shepherd, with his ducks and dogs. The dogs work as a team guided by your instructions to move the ducks around an obstacle course and, eventually, into a pen. Crystal Challenge is another outdoor team building event in Winchester, and it has the advantage of having an indoor version, so if the forecast is looking dicey you have an option. Again, there is a list of different challenges so you can pick and choose to suit your team. Some are cerebral, and others more physical, like the TV show that inspired this event, The Crystal Maze. Give us a call to discuss all of the options available for a team building event in historical Winchester.
