DofE Silver Expeditions for Schools and Groups

We offer a wide selection of expedition areas at Silver level, suited to your location and dates.

The Silver DofE expeditions were a great experience for all involved, added to by the knowledgeable staff, who shared their enthusiasm for the outdoors.

We aim to hold all our Silver expeditions within easy reach of your location, in a suitable area to inspire a sense of adventure and progression along the DofE experience.

Our flexible approach means that we have no minimum group size and will still provide exceptional value for money within a quality expedition programme. In addition to this we will handle all the expedition paperwork, including notification, medical & consent, pre course information, parent hand outs, emergency contacts, risk assessments and Insurance cover.

Training and pre-expedition planning is delivered at your base, followed by practice and assessment at a suitable location.

Areas on offer include Brecon Beacons & Black Moutains, New Forest, Mid Wales and our personal favourite Silver assessed expedition area - North Pembrokeshire, where the terrain varies from coastline to open moorland into ancient wooded valleys and stunning campsites. Well worth those extra few miles west for an impressive end to your Silver expedition programme.

Silver Expeditions Costs: £160.00 per person per expedition.

Open Silver Expeditions: £180.00 per person per expedition. See Open Silver page for dates.

Expeditions Wales Surpassed Our Expectations

As we normally run our own expeditions in house we have high standards we wish to maintain. This they did to a very high standard. Even though we had a large cohort they took our requirements in their stride and put together an excellent and well thought out expedition. We were so satisfied we have booked again for the coming year.

Really impressed by the level of professionalism.

Thank you for all the trouble you went through to make our trip amazing! I had some feedback from parents and they are very impressed by the level of organisation the fact that their children felt safe and pushed themselves to the limit :) I had a few comments about how much the students had learnt about themselves. I was really impressed by the level of professionalism and experience of your team.

Thank you for running such a great expedition!

Aled, Alix and colleagues,

I just wanted to say thank you for running such a great expedition. Robyn returned home having really enjoyed her time in Wales and I think that was mainly due to the attitude and commitment of the leaders. She not only feels the expected sense of achievement but also a genuine desire to continue with outdoor pursuits in the future. Amazing!

I am so glad that the girls decided to undertake the expedition independently with you.
