Hill Skills and Navigation Courses

Myself and my partner booked onto an introduction to rock climbing course with Will, we have both been climbing indoors since last year but fancied giving it a go outdoors. Will was a great instructor, patient and clear with instruction and we both felt it was a great introduction to climbing outdoors. Thanks again Will!

My daughter and I had a fantastic couple of days trekking in Snowdonia with Will as our Guide. Will was very kind and patient throughout, guiding us safely using his expertise and knowledge of the area. We navigated as many Welsh 3000s as we could, despite challenging high winds and bad weather, which we could never have completed on our own. He was particularly considerate with my daughter, who has a fear of heights but Will guided her patiently through some of the trickier descents. I highly recommend Will4Adventure.

Freedom to Fail; a great environment in which to learn new skills, (particularly when prior knowledge, experience and natural aptitude are sadly lacking!). And that's the environment and approach Will provided last weekend for the Bronze Hill Skills & Navigation Course. Day 1 - lots of gaffes, lots of laughs but we learnt a lot and so were able to plan and lead the next day's walk. Day 2 - a great walk, enhanced by Will's adaptability and enthusiasm in providing impromptu opportunities that reinforced skills learnt on his Fear of Heights Course and Scrambling Weekend. I feel loyalty towards this Company for good reason, but its testimony to their expertise and approach that I'd drive 3 hours to the beautiful Peak District for this course in preference to accessing something locally. So thank you Will - the toolbelt for enjoying 'the great outdoors' continues to grow, and the reason behind "What made that a great day out?" is changing from 'good luck' to 'good management'.

Had the best two days ever on the private 1-1 navigation course with Stuart. He was wholly patient, polite and made great conversation. Would without hesitation.recommend !

I’ve just completed the Overcoming Fear of Heights course, the super friendly and relaxed instructors created an atmosphere of trust straight away to help us all progress. The team were flexible enough to deal with individual challenges and we all achieved things we didn’t think we could. I’m already seeing positive changes back in the real world and am really glad I did the course ☺️

Amazing, life-changing experience! Having suffered and missed out on so many experiences due to my fear of heights my sister and I decided we needed to do something. This was the only course that combines psychology with practical experience. With Will, Adam and Brian’s support, understanding, skill and challenge I’ve already achieved more than I imagined possible. I highly recommend this for anyone who has ever felt their life inhibited by acrophobia. It’s a game changer!
