Explore Off Road - Adventures

Off Road Adventures

Explore Off-Road run overland adventures on vehicular rights of way that have been researched with the help of the local councils, ancient maps and modern ordnance survey maps. The duration of these adventures may be from 1 day to 14 days or longer depending on the location. During your adventure you will travel amidst stunning scenery and experience nature and all her changing moods and faces.

You will be accompanied and guided by one of our instructors in a fully equipped vehicle, he will be happy to assist you should it become necessary.
Over the years we have gained a vast knowledge of vehicular rights of way throughout the length and breadth of the country, this knowledge allows us to plan routes to suit all vehicles including expensive new vehicles.
Explore Off-Road believe in protecting the environment and support the “tread lightly” philosophy.

Our advice is:

Use only routes with vehicular rights of way.

Keep to the defined track. Detour only to pass immovable objects or stoppages and report all blockages to the local highway authority. Make sure that you know the route if it is not evident on the ground. Keep the speed of your group down to below 15 mph and travel with a maximum group of six vehicles.

Ensure that you and your vehicle are fully road legal. Remember that when you are on a vehicular right of way you are bound by the same laws as surfaced roads.

Observe the four W’s

WEATHER. Do not travel on a vehicular right of way when you risk damaging the route beyond natural repair when the weather improves.

WEIGHT. Avoid driving routes that may be seriously damaged by the weight of your vehicle.

WIDTH. Avoid using routes that are too narrow for your vehicle to avoid damage to trees, hedgerows, and boundaries. Oh yes… and your vehicle.

WINCHES. Use only when unavoidable, your priority should be to avoid damage to the environment. Should the use of the winch become necessary always use tree strops where required and safe recovery techniques.

Respect the wildlife of the countryside, it’s their home. Be courteous to other users including walker’s etc. Take extra care when passing horses, be prepared to stop your vehicle and turn off your engine. Always leave gates as you find them and take care when near to livestock.
