Why Team Building is Often Misunderstood and Undervalued: The Story Behind Our Discover Team Building Experience
New Forest Activities Director, Sam Sutton, shares how his early love of nature inspired his passion for helping workplaces experience the power of the outdoors.
From childhood camping trips to white-water kayaking in my twenties, I discovered how nature helps us reconnect and think differently. That same experience can transform teams.
SIn our digital, always-on world, teams need space to slow down, communicate openly, and build trust. Outdoor activities strip back roles and job titles, letting people connect as humans, solve challenges together, and spark creativity.
When teams face real challenges in nature — navigating a river, building something, or problem-solving outside — trust grows naturally. The outdoors gives honest feedback: if a team communicates well, it shows; if not, that shows too..
Big ideas emerge when people reflect outdoors. A short walk or a shared challenge can open perspectives that months of meetings never will.
Want to take it further? Our Discovery Taster Days give you team a chance to experience this first-hand — fun, engaging, and designed to leave a lasting impact.
"A fantastic day was had by all"
I would highly recommend New Forest Activities for a team building event. Sam was extremely helpful when I booked our canoeing trip, giving me all of our options as well as giving me details of the local pubs and what they could offer for our get together afterwards. All of the staff were friendly and informative and the Beaulieu River was stunning. A fantastic day was had by all and I hope we’ll be back next year!
"All very helpful, efficient and easy to work with"
We were mainly looking for team bonding and fun! Everyone really enjoyed themselves (even those who thought they wouldn’t). I think it was perfect for team building. I would recommend and potentially return if in the same area again.
"Incredible time with New Forest Activities!"
As part of a corporate team building day, we spent the afternoon canoeing and did bushcraft. The facilitators were both extremely professional, fun and informative. It definitely exceeded all expectations and was a great way for the team to connect away from the office. Highly recommend!
"Loved every minute of it!"
Amazing team who gave us the best day out. A special mention to our instructors Steve and Ellen who were very supportive and great hosts. Nothing was too much for them.
"Well organised and friendly staff"
This is the second time we have used New Forest Activities for our company event. They are really well organised from booking to throughout the event. The staff are friendly, helpful and informative and make the sessions really fun. I am sure we will be booking events again with them in the future.
