“The All In Ice Festival is a precious gem in the realm of outdoor adventures. It is a gathering that, with each passing year, manages to surpass expectations. Few spaces in the outdoor world can match the welcoming, exciting, and loving atmosphere that permeates this event.”

“Those who face the most adversity are least likely to have the resources needed to build resilience.”

In September, three teams of our Mountain People took on the epic Hike Bike Paddle challenge in aid of the Youth Adventure Trust. Not only did they have to conquer a mighty triathlon, they had to face the wrath of Storm Agnes that was battering the west coast- and everyone else that was caught in its path.

"Experience is the best teacher", they say, and it couldn't be more true for the group of young people from the David Nieper Academy who recently embarked on an unforgettable adventure in the Ogwen Valley, in partnership with Equip and the Outward Bound Trust.
