Looking for something different to do with the family this October half term?
With school holidays, busy schedules and the temptation to spend rainy days indoors, finding something everyone will enjoy can be tricky. But instead of another day in front of the television, why not get outdoors and try something new together?
October half term is a great opportunity to explore the Welsh countryside, take on a challenge and spend some proper quality time together. Whether your family enjoys a little adrenaline or would prefer to try something completely new, Adventure Britain has a range of outdoor activities to consider.
And the best part? You don’t have to be an experienced adventurer to enjoy the benefits of spending time outdoors as a family.
Planning a stag weekend for next year and looking for something a bit different? You could stick with the usual city break, nights out and a weekend you’ll probably struggle to remember. Or you could get everyone out of their comfort zone, spend the weekend surrounded by the Welsh countryside and come home with a few stories to tell.

Forget the Standard Stag or Hen Do

Deputy Mayor Zdenek Hrib said the move is all about attracting “more cultured” and “wealthier” tourists who come for the city’s beauty, not the booze-fueled chaos. Business associations and locals largely support the decision, though some say it may simply push the fun elsewhere, or force tourists to get creative with unorganised crawls and earlier starts.
