A full Adventure training experience delivered by passionate, experienced people
Arete Outdoor Centre Llanrug的点评
点评:Recently attended a multi-activity package over the course of a week, excellent facility made outstanding by its instructors. Facilities are spartan, think youth hostel or bunkhouse but encourage team building, social skills, personal resilience and personal accountability. The team go out of their way to accommodate specific needs and tailor a package that enables the broadest range of participants.
The core activities are well led by knowledgeable, passionate and experienced outdoor instructors. Each morning a plan for the day is formalised based on learning objectives and through discussion with guests, taking account of the likely weather for the day. The days are full, with morning and afternoon activities followed by evening challenges.
Young people attending are encouraged to build team working and social skills through daily 'duties' and tasks, those providing negative reviews of this aspect have sadly missed the point. If you're looking to bring a group the maximum experience would be gained by digital detoxing and use the social areas to reconnect in a more immediate sense through shared activity such as board games or even a communal film night.
Food was simple but effective and tasty, although breakfast could be improved, it felt like half a fry up each day and I could even bear a couple of pounds being added to the cost to facilitate a decent cooked breakfast.
For the environmentally conscious the centre encourages waste to be kept to a minimum and promotes recycling. Kit and equipment is more than adequate for any planned activity although the environmental ethos is present here too where kit is repaired wherever possible to prolong it's use rather than chucking it to replace with shiny new stuff. An approach at odds with our fast fashion world.
Overall I can highly recommend this place and I plan to bring other youth groups here in the near future.
翻译:最近参加了一个为期一周的综合活动套餐,场地设施一流,教练更是锦上添花。设施虽然简朴,类似于青年旅舍或宿舍,但却能有效促进团队建设、社交技能、个人韧性和责任感的培养。团队竭尽所能满足参与者的特定需求,并量身定制套餐,力求让尽可能多的参与者都能找到乐趣。
核心活动由知识渊博、充满热情且经验丰富的户外教练带领。每天早上,教练都会根据学习目标,并与参与者讨论,制定当天的活动计划,同时考虑当天的天气情况。每天的活动安排都很充实,上午和下午都有活动,晚上还有挑战项目。
参与者会被鼓励通过每日的“职责”和任务来培养团队合作和社交技能,那些对这方面给出负面评价的人显然没有抓住重点。如果您打算带团队参加,那么最好的体验莫过于暂时放下电子产品,利用公共区域进行一些简单的互动,例如玩桌游,或者来个集体电影之夜。
食物虽然简单,但营养丰富且美味可口。早餐还有提升空间,感觉每天都只有半份英式早餐,如果能多付几英镑享用一顿像样的熟食早餐,我完全可以接受。
对于注重环保的人来说,中心鼓励尽量减少浪费,并提倡回收利用。装备和器材足以满足任何计划活动的需求,而且这里也秉持着环保理念:尽可能地修补装备,延长其使用寿命,而不是像现在这样用完就扔,换成崭新的。这种做法与我们快时尚的时代格格不入。
总而言之,我强烈推荐这个地方,并计划在不久的将来带其他青年团体来这里。
