The North Wales Mega Committee have teamed up with TnR Coaching to bring you some fun activities for their Mega Week Side Event, “Ddraig’s Big Day Out” on Friday 5th August. These are training sessions that can be pre-ordered at a discounted rate to enjoy on the day.

The activities are; Gorge Walking (half day session) Climbing and Abseiling (half day) Bushcraft (2 hour session) and Canoeing (2 hours).

We have already signed up for the climbing and abseiling, which will start off with some bouldering to get warmed up and feeling the rocks. It’s great fun as it’s all about balance and getting to grips with rock climbing, but all at a safe low level, and with masses of tuition from TnR Coaching’s lovely instructors.

At just £35 per person including all specialist kit and Instruction, we are sure you will agree this is excellent value.

Please check out the Mega Shop for full details and to book your place on these fantastic activities.
