What Shall I Bring to Benmore?
Video about Benmore and what to bring
A Suggested List:
Benmore is an activity centre and there is a distinct possibility of getting wet and muddy on some activities! So the emphasis is on plenty of old, warm clothing – and please bring poly bags to pack wet stuff when you leave. Layers are best. This list is only a guide. No mobile phones and we advise AGAINST bringing valuables such as Nintendos etc. Also please do not bring any aerosols which can cause allergic reactions and can sometimes set off fire alarms.
