Residential expos
Our staff team have been delivering residential programmes from the Waterfall Valley near Swansea for over 12 years. The valley offers an idyllic landscape on which to base our multi activity programmes.
Outdoor Academy has maintained close links with local hotels, bunk houses and landowners enabling us to source the most suitable accommodation at the best group rates.
We aim to imitate a wilderness expedition, simulating participants’ passage through the Himalayas. The instructors will function as fellow group members, encouraging individuals to engage in and ‘work through’ the residential experience.
