Aberglaslyn Gorge


On a visit to Aberystwyth Uni we headed up to the Aberglaslyn early one morning to run the classic grade 4 gorge! The runs only a mile long but gives you no time to warm up and is incredibly continuous  However no shuttles are needed and you just walk up the road and do the run again!

Three Peaks Bike & Hike

This summer myself, Danny Kinchin & Harry Boulter completed the Three Peaks Bike & Hike over 10 days in August. We cycled 522 miles and ascended over 11000ft by foot. Although it rained on 9/10 days and the 60mph winds on Scafell Pike we still enjoyed the challenge and it was great to be supported by the King Alfred Educational Trust. Many thanks to those who sponsored us and we raised about £1500 for Helen and Douglas House and there is more still to collect!
