A hovercraft floats on a cushion of air, so it skims happily over grass, mud and water alike. The odd thing is that it has almost no grip, so steering is all about momentum and planning ahead. That takes a few laps to get your head around, and it is a hoot while you do.

No experience is needed. Sessions run on dedicated courses with a briefing and an instructor on hand, and the craft are forgiving at sensible speeds. It is an unusual one, which makes it a good shout for groups after something a bit different.

The operators on adventuro run supervised hovercraft sessions with everything provided. Expect to overshoot a few corners before it clicks.
