Why do adventure & outdoor activity centres need insurance?
Outdoor activity insurance is an incredibly important insurance cover.
Liability insurance doesn’t come with a choice. It is normally insisted upon by licensing authorities, governing bodies and the law; some of your clients will also insist upon seeing proof of insurance before they employ your services.
This aside, even with the best safety systems, injuries are common in the outdoor activity industry, making outdoor activity insurance a highly beneficial cover. The correct insurance will cover your costs in defending claims, including accidents for which you are not responsible but are accused.
In addition, your equipment and property are essential to running your business. Outdoor activity centre insurance protects against damage, theft, fire, storm, flood, etc., so your business can survive with minimal disruption.

For a more comprehensive cover, you may also want to consider the following:
