A weekend with nothing in the diary and a stunning spring weather forecast is the perfect recipe for an adventurous weekend in North Wales. But all this amazing spring weather does unfortunately mean the stagnation of whitewater kayaking. ‘Yeah but you can go mountain biking and running instead?’ is what you’re undoubtedly thinking. ‘Yeah but…
What better way to celebrate finishing exams than by enjoying the fine Coniston fells in the English Lake District? Ahhh the post exam freedom! That sweet, blissful feeling you’ve been longing for weeks and months. Getting back to nature, unwinding and letting all the stress dissipate out into nothingness. Freedom; nothing can beat it. Now…
4 day bank holiday weekends coupled with sunshine are a thing to behold in the UK. Whilst the beers gardens nationwide were packed, I opted for seclusion and adventuring on the Isle of Arran.
