point is chosen to be convenient for yourself. If possible this
will be at your chosen accommodation or conveniently on route
to the activity venue.
I'm a little
bit unsure, is it all safe?
Although
its is impossible to completely eliminate risk, through our
experience and keeping to national guidelines we keep this risk
to a minimum. All our instructors are fully qualified and insured
in their area of work, please see AMI
or BCU
for more information on outdoor qualifications.
What happens
if there is bad weather?
We are fortunate in North Wales in that we have many different
venue options for each activity. Often we can find a sheltered
or even dry venue for a given activity when other parts of the
park may be wet and wild. We also have the option of providing
you with an alternative activity that wouldn't be affected by
the bad weather.
Do I need personal
insurance?
It is recommended that you take out your own personal insurance,
as with any sporting activity, while on a course. Please see
Snowcard
or British
Mountaineering Council for possible policies.
