Advice on equipment prior to meeting, along with guidance appropriate to your needs should see you gaining the confidence to complete a journey under your own steam in the future. The exact venue and content will vary but will generally include, route planning, navigation, weather forecasts and observations, movement skills and what to do when it goes wrong.

Active8 Oswestry Special

In conjunction with Active8 Functional Fitness in Oswestry, Ali is pleased to offer a day in the Welsh mountains which can be as steep or gentle as the participants like. We would meet at 9am at the Siabod Cafe just outside of Betws y Coed to have a brew and discuss what people would like to get out of the day; this could be as simple as getting some fresh air and having a day out in the hills and recharging, learning some map reading skills or getting a taste of an activity you are interested in. You will need boots suitable for the actvity a small rucksack and a set of waterproofs minimum (if it aint rainin' it ain't trainin') a kit list will be sent out prior to the day. 8 places maximum for each day. A gauranteed way of getting your step count up for the week!

Is it for me? If you train or attend classes at Active8 Oswestry then quite simply - yes it is!
