Join us for a two-night, three-day Wild Wales Weekend designed for fresh air, connection and epic adventure.

On Friday, we’ll settle in with a relaxed group dinner and friendly icebreaker to get everyone chatting and comfortable. Saturday takes us into the mountains for a rewarding hike to summit Y Garn, via Devils Kitchen, with stunning views across Ogwen Valley. As evening falls, we’ll gather around fire pits for laughter and s’mores under the night sky.

On Sunday, we’ll head to Llyn Padarn, the home to the Lonely Tree, and take on the lake with XL paddleboards – with six to a board, it’s a mixture of team work and balance!

We’re super excited to announce that this epic weekend of hiking, exploring and spending time outdoors is in partnership with our friends at Mountain Warehouse and they will be gifting every guest a pair of walking boots/shoes and a jacket – to take you even further in the outdoors!

What does the “style and rating” of the trip mean?
Each trip has a style that describes the type of accommodation, transport, and inclusions you can expect, plus a rating to give you an idea of the physical challenge. This helps you know exactly what’s in store on each trip. You can check out what they mean here.

When does the trip get confirmed?

Each trip has a set minimum number for the trip to take place; both for UK weekends and overseas trips. Our trips are normally fully booked, however, if we do not reach the minimum numbers we may be required to cancel your trip. We will decide on whether an event is likely to be cancelled because of minimum numbers no less than 8 weeks before an event. We will be in touch as soon as the trip has confirmed, if you are unsure you can email [email protected] to confirm. If we are required to cancel, we will not be responsible for any costs incurred from travel arrangements, accommodation etc. You can further information in our terms and conditions here.

We do our best to accommodate dietary requirements, including vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free diets. However, if you have a highly restrictive diet or specific food requirements that may be more difficult to accommodate, please email us at [email protected] before booking so we can discuss your needs and confirm what’s possible for your trip.
