Activity Description

Archery Adventure – Stellenbosch

Step into the world of ancient skill and precision with the Archery Adventure in the scenic surrounds of Stellenbosch. This exciting, interactive outdoor experience is perfect for first-time archers, families, friends, and team-building groups looking for something unique, challenging, and fun.

Your adventure begins with a relaxed introduction to traditional archery, where our friendly instructors will guide you through the basics of shooting a traditional recurve bow. You’ll learn proper stance, aim, draw technique, and shooting safety in a beautiful natural setting that enhances the immersive experience. No prior experience is needed – just a sense of adventure and a steady eye.

Once everyone is feeling confident with their bow, the real fun begins as you put your new skills to the test in two exciting archery games designed to challenge your accuracy and add a little friendly competition. These games could include “Balloon Pop,” where each archer tries to burst as many colourful balloons as possible, or the ever-popular “Target Race,” where archers must hit a sequence of targets in the shortest time. These games are designed to build excitement, boost confidence, and create lots of laughs along the way.

Next, the adventure shifts into a more advanced and visually striking experience – 3D archery shooting. Here, guests move through a short course featuring realistic, foam animal targets placed at different angles and distances. It’s as close to traditional hunting-style archery as you can get, and adds an extra layer of skill and fun. You’ll feel like a true archer tracking prey through the wild!

To end off the session, we introduce you to the traditional challenge of clout archery – a medieval-style long-distance game where you shoot high into the air, aiming to land your arrow as close as possible to a flag or target placed flat on the ground far away. It’s a thrilling way to test your technique and accuracy over distance, and an impressive finish to an action-packed session.

Whether you’re channeling your inner Robin Hood or simply trying something new, the Archery Adventure in Stellenbosch is a fantastic way to connect with nature, learn a traditional skill, and enjoy quality time with others in the beautiful Winelands. All equipment is provided.
