STAG DO BLOG

On a stag do you're going to get lots of highs and lows, from the lows; of the last morning when you feeling more sick than a hypochondriac standing in the middle of Paddington train station at rush-hour, to the highs; of downing 5 flaming Sambucas.

But what about searching out for that natural high, the high that won't give you a comedown or hangover.

All activity sites will offer either Trekking or Racing.

3. White Water Rafting A brilliant hangover cure, one th…
