Things you should know...
THE WELCOME
All scheduled courses and walking breaks are run from The Bear Hotel in Crickhowell, a bustling village on the A40 between Abergavenny and Brecon. Personal tuition, 1:1 coaching and bespoke courses are run by arrangement throughout Wales, and in other parts of the UK.
AVAILABILITY
Courses are run throughout the year (Christmas holiday excepted), and you can join in several ways. You can, for example, come on a scheduled course on which numbers are kept very small to allow for personal attention and maximum enjoyment. There will never be more than 4 people per instructor - guaranteed - and it may well be less! Alternatively, you can choose 1:1 coaching or personal tuition (for you and your friends, if required) on a tailor-made course, run on the dates most convenient to you. Bespoke everts for groups of 5 or more people are also available.
EQUIPMENT, CLOTHING & FOOTWEAR
If your course requires you to have specialist equipment, this will be supplied at no extra charge. All you need to bring is suitable clothing and footwear, and a small rucksack, and these are available for hire if necessary. A comprehensive kitlist will be sent when your booking is confirmed.
AGE LIMITS
Please note that we are unable to cater for unaccompanied persons under 18 years of age. However, we set no upper age limit, and positively welcome the more mature young-at-heart!
FITNESS
Mountain activities are fairly physical pursuits! Although you do not have to be superfit, we advise you to arrive in reasonable shape, if only for your own comfort and enjoyment!
