Pre-Expedition Training Weekends
Superb tailored training weekends for all charity treks and bike rides from Friday evening to Sunday afternoon.
Location: The training takes place in the heart of Snowdonia National Park in the mountains of North Wales.
Accommodation: The accommodation is in a Snowdonia youth hostel. The hostel has a meeting room for all kit checks and discussions, a bar on site for the evenings and good showers and toilets. The rooms will be shared and the beds will be bunks in preparation for your overseas charity challenge.
Food: The course is fully catered with cooked breakfast, packed lunches and 3 course evening meals served with a complimentary glass of wine. There is the option to relax at the bar on site after dinner.
Programme: The Friday evening will be a welcome evening with a meal and drinks and a small silde show. Saturday morning will look at equipment and then set off up Snowdon or riding around Snowdonia National park. The route chosen will depend upon the weather conditions at the time and the trek / bike ride that the group are undertaking overseas. On Sunday, we will leave the hostel after breakfast, taking our packed lunches and for those on the trekking challenge weekends, trek around the Ogwen valley at the base of Tryfan looking at aspects of technical trekking, again dependent upon weather and the chosen trek for the group. For those who book on the bike training weekend, we will leave the hostel after breakfast, taking our packed lunches, drive to Llandegla Forest and then use one of their off road circuits.
There will be plenty of time for questions throughout the weekend about the destination countries, trekking, biking, camping tips, high altitude, mid altitude and medical advice and any other issues that the group wish to raise.
Fitness: These weekends will not automatically make you fit for your expedition challenge but will give you an idea of what is required.
