What is an Adventure Activity?
Adventure Activities are experiences (like surfing, sea kayaking, and coasteering) at Love Trails Festival that require booking in advance, and cost a bit extra. Most Adventure Activities take place off site around Gower, and include a minibus transfer there & back. You can book an Adventure Pass here.
How It Works:
1) Meet your group at the Bus Stop* at the festival site, 40 minutes before your session starts
2) Hop on your minibus to the activity, usually somewhere beautiful in the Gower Peninsula!
3) Enjoy your session with qualified instructors. Most equipment is included (check the details on the adventure page for details)
4) Hop on the mini-bus transfer back to the festival site (approx 30 mins)
*Please note Foraging & Run to Wine Tasting to not require transport, and you'll meet the group at the activity. Details will be provided in the E-Ticket.
