Whether you’ve always dreamed of giving Robin Hood a run for his money or you’ve been inspired by TV series like Game of Thrones, archery has fascinated people for thousands of years.

This ancient sport is still practised today, and is an extremely fun and exciting way to combine sports with a bit of history. If you live in or near London and are looking for a super special archery experience, we’ve got you covered. From archery experiences for kids to exhilarating combat archery experiences for groups, here are five of the best archery experiences in and around the London area.

Junior Archery Experience Days

Thanks to characters like Katniss from The Hunger Games and Legolas from Lord of the Rings, children are almost always super keen to try archery – and if you have a kid in your life who’s dying to handle a bow and arrow, you’ll want to check out this Junior Archery Session in London. During this fun experience, kids and teens will learn the basics of archery under the guidance of a fully qualified instructor, and though there’s a focus on fun and games, you’ll be amazed at how quickly they can progress. From learning to nock an arrow and draw a bow like a pro to shooting at balloons, this London activity is a great opportunity for young people to experience the thrill of this graceful sport, make new friends, and learn an impressive new skill.

Medieval Longbow Archery Experience Days

If you’ve always been fascinated by history – or you’re looking for a unique gift for a history buff – what about the Medieval Longbow Archery Lesson? At an Essex location just a short drive away from London, this two-hour archery lesson is a unique and authentic way to bring history back to life – and at one of the south east’s top archery centres, you know you’re in good hands. Getting to grips with a traditional longbow can be tricky at first, but with expert instructors on hand to advise you, you’ll soon get the hang of it. You’ll take aim at a series of targets just as a medieval archer would have done, and as you improve, the targets will be moved further and further back. An enormously fun way to learn about history while putting your hand-eye coordination to the test.

Alternatively, if you like getting your blood pumping and competing against your friends, what could be better than this Combat Archery Experience? Just outside London, in Essex, this is an adrenaline-pumping activity that will have you and your pals battling it out as you try your hand at combat archery, one of the nation’s favourite combat sports. Combat archery combines the best of archery and dodgeball, and you’ll be shooting foam-tipped arrows at your friends while trying to avoid their own. All this, while climbing over inflatable obstacles and getting stuck into all manner of exciting elimination games! If you’ve always wondered how you’d fare in combat – or in a post-apocalyptic situation – this experience is a great way to find out. Perfect for stags, hens and birthdays.
