Adventure Awaits

Superb Yoga, wild water swimming and walking weekend arranged by Adventure Awaits. The guiding was very professional, full of humour and delivered exactly what was planned. The Yoga was perfectly targeted at our tired walking legs and stiff backs and the food first class.

Our second time booking a trail running day with Dean through Adventure Awaits. This time for a recce for the Ultratrail Snowdonia. Amazing day out with a great guide. Dean was able to give the group lots of advice about the route and how to tackle some of the technical terrain as well as tips to ensure a smooth race day for everyone. Highly recommend!

Such an awesome weekend of running. Well organised and thought out from start to finish.Being able to run/scramble on lesser known routes through Snowdonia was amazing. Only made possible by Dean's skills and knowledge of the area.I can see myself doing this again and would definitely recommend to others.

I spend a wonderful weekend at Boulders Adventures with Westbury Harriers, running around the local hills and mountains. The accommodation was perfect- comfy beds, lots of hot showers and great social areas and also a welcomed yoga session. Dean and Dan were the perfect hosts. Dean cooked a delicious evening meal, hearty breakfasts and there was a great selection of delights for our picnic lunches. They were very knowledgeable about the surrounding area and had lots of tales to tell to take your mind off your aching muscles! They made everyone feel included, making me feel encouraged and supported throughout. I can't wait for the next one :-)

Dean was a wonderful guide, really friendly and knowledgable about the local area. The weekend was a great introduction to sky running and the routes were a bit off the beaten track so we avoided a lot of the crowds despite the beautiful weather. Excellent food, good company and breathtaking mountain views with some nice technical segments that were tailored to the ability of the group - a perfect weekend!

Amazing day - as total novices Dean patiently and competently introduced us and our two boys to scrambling. We now have the confidence to take them out and try some scrambling adventures, with the basic rope skills making a huge difference - one day has opened up so much for us.In addition Dean was hugely informative about mountain safety, relevant kit, even regional flora!We all had a great day, learned so much and gained confidence and insight.Cannot recommend highly enough, and given his own personal competence and experience I’m sure he would add great value to anyone wanting to get into the mountains and learn more, from novice to experienced mountaineer/climber/runner etc.

There is literally not enough I could say to demonstrate how wonderful this Experience was. Despite Covid, Dean, did his best to make sure the event was both Covid secure and enjoyable and safe for all. Dean is quite simply the best event organiser we’ve ever met, putting everything into making our weekend Skyrunning in North Wales go perfectly. From his amazing crew, to his cordon bleu cooking skills, serving homemade curry, amazing lunches (no petrol station sandwiches here) to whipping up cakes (and I hasten to add the most spectacular carrot cake) - and literally icing them when we returned from the mountains. But his passion for the great our doors pours from him in abundance and you literally can not do anything to stop yourself from being drawn into his world. The breathtaking views. The amazing climbs. The perfect trails. The Wild Ponies. And the cheesy jokes. It all goes toward making a once in a life time experience, that my friends and I want to experience again and again. We’ll definitely be back, with friends and family! Thanks Dean and crew!!

Dean laid on a fabulous bespoke weekend event for our running club which was beyond brilliant! Dean is thoroughly likeable, professional, knowledgeable and fun. Our weekend went without a hitch with great routes, good advice and gorgeous food. The weekend was everything I was hoping for and more. Thank you Dean, I can’t recommend you highly enough.
