Hampshire Outdoors is excited to be working in partnership with Aberystwyth University to offer a bespoke residential experience tailored to Duke of Edinburgh participants with an interest in ecology, geology and physical geography.

The programme will showcase some of West Wales’ most stunning scenery through the lens of environmental science. In this five-day residential, you will stay in accommodation on campus, near the seaside town, with day trips and studies supervised by experts from the universities world-leading research departments.

Aberystwyth provides easy access to beautiful coastlines, mountains, and valleys. Field trips led by subject experts will explore the natural landscape, from ancient glacial and volcanic activities to modern land management practices. Thriving marine wildlife can often be spotted from the town, giving a fantastic opportunity to survey local bottlenose dolphin populations, and observe other species on the rocky shore.

Activities include dolphin watching, field trips, lab work and more.
