Hobbiton promotes environmental and social awareness, cross-cultural appreciation and the development of life and leadership skills through our facilities and in the natural setting of our centre in Hogsback. Our tailor-made adventures, camps and retreats cater for everybody. 

All our group activities are followed by debriefings so that learning is shared. We explore how these lessons can be implemented in future decision-making in the ‘real world’. The impact of these learning experiences can seldom be generated in the same way at home or at school.

Hobbiton believes that an outdoor experience in an exciting, supportive environment is pivotal to the development of a well-rounded person and a healthy society.
