10-Day Multi-Sport Adventure
Ten days of varied adventure sports across a region: trekking, kayaking, mountain biking, rock climbing, canyoning, paragliding, surfing, horseback riding, via ferrata, and a multi-sport finale. Each day features a different primary sport with professional instruction.
How to read this template
This is a real itinerary, not a preview. Everything below is what an operator would send — and what their guides would carry.
- 10 days
- Each day is a segment. Reorder them, drop one, insert a rest day — the rest of the itinerary follows.
- 60 blocks
- Everything inside a day is a block: a transfer, an activity, a meal, a night, a briefing. Blocks carry their own type and colour.
- 123 fields
- Distances, ascent, times, prices and notes are structured fields, not prose — so they total, sort and export instead of only reading well.
- 14 internal notes
- Marked Internal — guides onlybelow. Your guides get them; your clients never see them.
One itinerary, three audiences
The same content exports three ways without being rewritten: a client PDF with the internal notes and cost lines stripped, a guide sheet that keeps them, and an internal ops sheet with margins. Most tools give you the first one and leave the other two to a spreadsheet.
The itinerary, day by day
Pickup from airport. Transfer to the adventure base lodge in a mountain valley surrounded by rivers, cliffs, and forest — the terrain for the next 10 days.
Purpose-built adventure lodge. Gear storage, drying room, workshop. Twin rooms, full board. Climbing wall and sauna on site. Your base for all nine nights — every activity runs out from here and back, so you unpack once.
Confirm the drying room and the workshop are both available to the group, not shared with day visitors. Nine nights of wet kit needs dedicated space or it never dries.
Ten sports in ten days. Each day: a different primary activity with professional instruction and all equipment provided. One rest day mid-trip. Moderate all-round fitness required; specialist skills taught on the day.
Verify adventure insurance covers all 10 activities — climbing, canyoning, paragliding, and water sports often need explicit coverage. Signed waivers needed per activity. Note participant fears and preferences. Brief each activity instructor on group profile.
Afternoon hike through the surrounding hills. The guide assesses fitness and shows the terrain for the week's activities: river, crags, trails, and canyon entrance all visible from the ridge.
Group dinner. Meet the week's instructors. Preview the schedule.
Morning skills session in calm water, afternoon grade II-III rapids. Wetsuits and all equipment provided.
First water day. Check swimming ability individually and note who goes in a double. Wetsuits fitted the evening before, not on the bank.
Lunch on the riverbank between the morning skills session and the afternoon descent. Kayaks stay on the water and you eat in your wetsuit, so keep it light.
Arms and shoulders will be done in after a full day of paddling. Stretch, use the sauna, and eat more than you feel like — tomorrow is a riding day and it starts early.
Lodge dinner. Bikes are fitted after dinner rather than in the morning, so bring your shoes down to the workshop and get the saddle height set tonight.
Full day on forest trails and purpose-built single-track. Morning: skills and flow trails. Afternoon: technical descents and optional jump line.
Bikes sized and adjusted the night before in the workshop. A group that fits bikes on the morning loses an hour and rides the first climb badly.
Packed lunch at a viewpoint roughly halfway round. Bikes get a quick chain and pressure check while everyone eats — the second half is rougher than the first.
Wash the bikes down and run through gears and brakes before handing them back. Anything found now gets fixed by the workshop overnight rather than becoming tomorrow’s problem.
Lodge dinner. Climbing tomorrow, so go easy on the climbing wall tonight however tempting it is — forearms do not recover in eight hours.
Full day at the local crags. Top-rope and lead climbing from grade 4 to 6b. Full instruction on harness, knots, belaying, and technique. Multi-pitch option for experienced climbers.
Lunch in the shade at the foot of the crag. Shoes off, feet up — the afternoon routes are longer and the approach is already behind you.
Rest through the afternoon. Canyoning tomorrow works the same muscles as today, so this is a genuine recovery window rather than a spare half-day.
Lodge dinner. Tomorrow is the rest day, so this is the one evening nobody has to think about an early start — the sauna is free until eleven.
Sleep in. Mid-trip rest day. Body needs recovery after 4 consecutive activity days.
Visit the nearby village: local market, traditional crafts, thermal hot springs. Cultural contrast to the adrenaline of the activity days.
Lunch at a family-run restaurant in the village. Local specialities, unhurried service, and the only meal of the trip that is not built around an activity either side of it.
Thermal springs or lodge sauna. Passive recovery for the second half of the week.
Days 6-10: canyoning, paragliding/horseback, surfing, via ferrata, and multi-sport finale. Briefing at dinner.
Check all participants after 4 activity days. Adjust difficulty levels for anyone with developing injuries. Confirm weather for paragliding (Day 7) — have horseback riding as backup. Verify coastal transfer for surfing day.
Descend a mountain canyon through waterfalls, natural slides, and jump pools. Wetsuit, helmet, harness. Abseils (rappels) and jumps — both optional at each obstacle.
Every jump optional and say so twice — once at the briefing and again at the first one. Peer pressure in a multi-sport group is the injury risk here, not the canyon.
Canyon rules: helmet and harness on at all times. Every jump is optional — walk-around alternatives exist. The instructor checks every abseil anchor. Whistle signals: 1 blast = stop, 2 = go, 3 = emergency. Water temperature is cold — wetsuit essential.
Late lunch once everyone is out of the canyon and dry. Warm food and hot drinks matter more than usual here — the water is cold enough that people come out shivering even in summer.
Rest and dry gear. Canyoning is physically demanding — take it easy this afternoon.
Lodge dinner. Weather check for paragliding tomorrow.
Tandem paragliding flight from the mountain above the lodge. No experience needed — you fly with a certified instructor. The launch, the silence of flight, and the view are unforgettable. Landing in the valley meadow.
Decision at 09:00 and communicate it as final. A group that senses hesitation will lobby for flying in marginal wind, and the horseback alternative needs booking by 09:30 either way.
Paragliding requires: wind below 25 km/h, no rain, visibility above 3 km, no thunderstorm forecast within 6 hours. If conditions don't meet these criteria, the alternative is a horseback ride through the mountain trails (2.5 hours). Decision made at 09:00 on the day.
Horseback ride through mountain trails and meadows. No experience needed — gentle horses, experienced guides. A completely different perspective on the landscape. Duration 2.5 hours.
Free afternoon. Either post-flight euphoria or post-ride relaxation.
Lodge dinner. Tomorrow is the coast: an early transfer out, surfing or SUP through the middle of the day, and back here for dinner. Pack a towel and dry clothes for the drive home rather than an overnight bag.
Morning drive to the coast. 90-minute transfer through mountain passes to reach the beach break. Equipment pre-arranged at the surf school.
Morning surf lesson: beach instruction, paddling, pop-ups, and catching white water. Afternoon: free surfing or stand-up paddleboard (SUP) session in the bay. All equipment provided.
Longest transfer of the week for the shortest activity window. Leave by 07:30 or the tide has gone; brief that the day is mostly driving so nobody is surprised.
Lunch at the beach café between sessions. Fresh water to rinse the salt off before eating, and there is no shade on the sand, so the café terrace is the sensible option.
Drive back up to the lodge in the late afternoon. Rinse the salt off both yourself and the gear when you arrive — boards and wetsuits go on the racks, not in your room.
Lodge dinner after a day in the salt and sun. Via ferrata tomorrow needs a head for exposure more than strength, and the briefing happens over breakfast.
Iron path route on the local cliff face. Fixed cables, rungs, and ladders up a rock wall with spectacular exposure. Harness and via ferrata set provided. Routes from K2 (easy) to K4 (difficult).
Exposure, not strength, is what stops people here. Ask about heights at the day-eight dinner so anyone uncomfortable has a night to decide rather than freezing on the first ladder.
Routes: K2 (beginners, 1h), K3 (intermediate, 2h), K4 (advanced, 3h — requires confidence with exposure). Harness fitting: double lanyards clipped to cable at all times. Helmet mandatory. The instructor leads and checks each clip point. Vertigo check at the first ledge — option to descend if uncomfortable.
Lunch at the top of the via ferrata route. Walk down the back trail to return.
Rest before the final day. Some may want to use the lodge climbing wall for evening practice.
Farewell dinner at the lodge. Award ceremony: best wipeout, bravest moment, most improved, and the coveted multi-sport champion trophy.
Grand finale: a multi-sport relay combining elements from the week — trail run, kayak sprint, bike leg, and climbing wall. Teams of 3, timed, with transitions. Competitive but friendly. The winning team gets bragging rights forever.
Post-relay brunch. Relay results, group photos, certificate ceremony. 10 sports completed in 10 days.
Check out. Return all equipment. Tip the instructors and lodge team. Settle extras.
Run every extra through the lodge account and reconcile once at checkout. Over ten days and eight disciplines, per-session cash collection guarantees at least one activity gets billed twice or not at all.
Collect all hired kit against the issue list before anyone leaves for the airport — across six sports over ten days something is always still in a room.
Transfer to airport or station. 10 sports, 10 days, one incredible adventure.
Complete: trek (8 km), kayaking (15 km), biking (35 km), climbing, canyoning, paragliding/horseback, surfing, via ferrata, and multi-sport relay. A truly multi-sport adventure.
Equipment inventory against issue list. Note any damage. Collect signed waivers for archive. Compile expense report. Gather instructor feedback. Update activity difficulty ratings based on this group's experience.
Nine nights at the adventure lodge on full board with gear storage, drying room and workshop, two to three guides throughout, all technical equipment for all eight disciplines, every transfer including the coastal day, all meals, and group safety equipment. One unpack for the whole trip: every activity runs out from the lodge and back.
Personal clothing and footwear across water, riding, climbing and walking; travel to the lodge; travel insurance covering every listed activity; drinks; laundry; the tandem paragliding surcharge if the weather allows it to run; and gratuities for guides and instructors. Eight sports in ten days needs more clothing than a single-activity trip — the packing list is long for a reason.
Paragliding is weather-dependent and priced as a surcharge, so it appears on some invoices and not others. Explain that at booking rather than at checkout, or the group compares notes and it looks arbitrary.
Travel insurance must name every discipline on this itinerary: kayaking, mountain biking, climbing, canyoning, via ferrata, surfing and tandem paragliding. That last one is excluded by most standard policies outright, and via ferrata is frequently written out alongside it. A policy covering six of eight leaves you off two activities. Three of the eight activities put you in water — river, canyon and surf — so swimming competence is a requirement of the trip rather than of one day. Carry photo ID and the insurer's emergency number with you rather than leaving them at the lodge, since half these activities happen an hour or more away from it.
Go through the list activity by activity at check-in and record what each client is covered for. Anyone not covered for paragliding or via ferrata takes the alternative, and finding that out on the morning wastes an instructor slot that was booked and paid for.
