The idea behind this is to not only help people in a business environment bond together, but helping them with stress relief, health, fitness and clearing their minds from the clutter of day to day work.

Martin himself has been a keen walker for many years. He was one of the first to run the London Marathon. In 1996 at 50 years young he looked for further adventure climbing Kilimanjaro and the next year Mt. Blanc.

An experienced hill walker he has trekked in many parts of the world. In Wales he has back packed from Llanfairfechan on the North Wales coast to Swansea, completed Offas Dyke long distance path and the Pembrokeshire coastal path. He says that “in his opinion Wales has a great variety of walking interest. The Brecon Beacons can offer fine hill walking for the young or not so young as well as for experienced and novice walkers.”

His love of the area has been the catalyst to his offering hill walking experiences to visitors. Martin has been on leader courses at the National Mountain Centre Plas Y Brenin and holds a valid British Red Cross Expedition Group Leaders first aid qualification.
