What Outdoors Kit Masterclass

All attending will get an extra 10% off of their Go Outdoors discount card price!

It's a meetup over a cuppa to chat about what kit to buy for your budget and for your intended use. we will then look at a range of kit on offer at Go Outdoors and this will include:

Boots
Clothing
Waterproofs
Backpacks
Camping Kit
Bits and Bobs

I am asking Go Outdoors for a group discount but this is a possible not a probable. However, they are just about the cheapest on many items and the guarantee to price match.

If you're considering going for your first walk or upgrading your kit do pick Andy's brains and make the right choices.

Andy will have his recommended head torches and his designed and packaged mountain first aid kits for sale but you can also buy these now in the facebook shop -

A Sunny Afternoon Of Kite Boarding

It was a super sunny day with not a lot of breeze but these kite stars managed to get the three metre kites into the air and some even managed to get moving on the mountain boards.

We have a good selection of kites and run introductory power kite and mountain board sessions, usually at Ogmore by Sea but sometimes near Brecon too.

You can view the full gallery HERE!

We also sell new kites in the fb shop, kites that we have been using for group use for over ten years now and we highly recommend them on price and longevity.

Look out for our next power kite and mountain board session.

Snowdonia Wild Camping Expedition Weekend 28th-30th September 2018

The Wales Outdoors owner and facilitator of Adventure Activity South Wales will be running a trip to Snowdonia 28th-30th September - you can join him by RSVP-ING HERE!

A Cardiff to Cardiff guided trip to the best of wild camping in Snowdonia suitable for those who are weathered mountaineers and also for those dipping their toes into backpacking and wild camping.

Andy will be leaving Friday morning and driving up to Capel Curig for a four day expedition for up to five people. We can supply any kit that you might need or provide you with pointers for best choice if going on a spending spree and buying some new gear. This is the plan

Friday - Drive and Easy walk to Dulyn Bothy and a camp inside.
Saturday - Walk over The Carneddau to Bethesda. Wild camp at Andy's secret and favourite wild Snowdonia campsite
Sunday - Walk the Nant Ffrancon Ridge to the foot of The Glyders, drop down into the Ogwen Valley and follow the trail back to the car and drive back to Cardiff.  

There are good foul weather alternative routes for this expedition. All kit and food will be carried by the group. Advice on what to take will be given. Andy will be teaching those who wish to receive instruction mountain navigation skills, camp craft, camp cooking and will be telling tall tales throughout. The cost is 135 pounds per person and this covers any kit required, all instruction, transport and an absolutely guaranteed amazing time!

A fifty pound deposit will be taken to secure your place.

Wales Outdoors Have Bought A Yacht

As many of you may know, Andy the Wales Outdoors owner, lives an itinerant lifestyle, based from his van or a cave in Tenerife or a tent in the hills. Well, now he's added a yacht to the list of 'houses'. 

The boat is a 1969 Snapdragon 26, a bilge keeled sailing yacht that was built with extra thick GRP and so is super strong and safe, easy to sail and when in good condition highly sought after. 

Externally renovated, at least in part, Andy will be continuing with the project by first having the mast stepped and all standing rigging replaced and at the same time have the sail rigging set up for solo use. 

Internally the boat is a bit of a shed. Tidy enough for sailing but not for living. Andy is planning a full refurbishment over the autumn to include insulating the hull, moving the sea toilet from the fore to midships, building a fixed double bed in the fore cabin and panelling the interior of the galley and salon areas. 

While doing this work all plumbing and electrics will be looked at and replaced where needed. 

Andy's been told that a boat is not an investment but a drain on finances but the addition of days on the sea and a fixed base to live and work from in Cardiff is well worth the work and cost. 

A driving force in this decision has been the increasing car crime in Cardiff and off the back of two break-ins in 2018 Andy was minded to either leave the UK or to obtain secure parking. Obviously the second option won out. 'Alakiefik' will be moored at Penarth Marina.

You'll be able to visit Andy as soon as the boat is on the water with it's mast raised and any offers of skilled assistance with the renovation is very much appreciated :)
