Climbing, abseiling and other outdoor activities are becoming more and more popular, and with the credit crunch meaning many of us can’t take our usual holidays abroad maybe now is the time to embrace the great outdoors and try something a bit more challenging this summer. The UK, and especially Wales, has loads of amazing locations where you can try out all sorts of exciting and fun experiences. So regardless of whether you’re an experienced adventurer or a first-time explorer, there will be something that will suit you.

Wales has some of the most stunning scenery in the UK, and is the perfect setting for activity holidays, with its famous mountains and craggy coastlines for climbing, beautiful rolling hills and valleys for walking holidays and long, sandy beaches with clear seas for water sports. There is an adventure waiting for everyone whatever your level of experience, whether you’re looking for the adrenalin rush of scaling the famous Welsh mountains or just want to relax and appreciate the views.

Or if you want to try something a bit different, Wales is the home of ‘coasteering’, a wild combination of scrambling, climbing, traversing, cliff jumping and swimming that was first developed on the Pembrokeshire coast. All the activities are available to people of all levels and you will be with a trained instructor, so even if you’ve never done more than climb the stairs at home, you’ll still be able to give it a go.

There is a huge range of different types of accommodation for holidaymakers across the country, from hotels to self catering flats and holiday cottages in the countryside. So whatever type of new experience you’re looking for and whatever activities you want to try, a short break in Wales could be the answer for an exciting, different and affordable holiday this summer.
