A stag party is meant to be one of the wildest and most special adventures of your life. At a location like Cardiff in South Wales, there is a long list of options to have great fun with your friends and make it an event worth remembering years later. There are plenty of bars and clubs that you can hang out at but the best stag weekends in Cardiff are enjoyed in the beautiful outdoors. After the strenuous, heart-thumping outdoor activities, you can always unwind with your favourite drinks and the company of your mates.
Why an Outdoor Stag Party?
Cardiff is blessed with a beautiful climate, rocky terrain and an irresistible coastline that is perfect for adventure activities for groups. Some of the activities extend to neighbouring places like Swansea and Hereford, and to the amazing Brecon Beacons National Park which is only a 45-minute drive from Cardiff. Providers like Quest Adventures have a reputation for ensuring your safety. They will provide top-class equipment and guide you in using it properly.
· Canyoning:
Also known as gorge walking, this activity allows you the unique experience of scrambling up the mountain alongside a rushing waterfall and then diving into the inviting pool below to do a spot of wild swimming. Attempt this only if your group has good stamina and no one is faint-hearted.
· Outdoor rock climbing:
You are first shown the technique of rock climbing at the indoor training centre and then allowed to attack the cliffs along the coast or the mountainous Brecon region. You will also learn abseiling to get back down after your exhilarating climb.
· Surfing:
Learn surfing at Porthcawl where the waves are just right all year round. It is fun to watch each other sliding off the surfboard, and you can make your friends proud by finally mastering the art of surfing. The water here is also perfect for kayaking and raft racing.
· Coasteering:
This local activity was invented in South Wales and is a must-do activity for stag parties. After you gear up in your wetsuits complete with helmets and floats, your group will make its way along the South Wales coastline. Be prepared to discover interesting caves and hidden coves along this coasteering journey. You are most welcome to jump into the cool, clear Atlantic water. This outing is conducted under the supervision of trained instructors.
· Quad Biking:
Quad Biking is a great mid-day activity where you ride a 4-wheeled dirt bike over rough terrain. You can hold races among your friends or if you are experienced or skilled in quad biking, you can get a thrill out of challenging mud jumps.
Multi-Activity Days:
Choose those activities that you and your friends find appealing; after all, the bottom line is to have a whale of a time. If you will be spending a few days here, then stag weekends in Cardiff can be planned as multi-activity days with Quest Adventures. They will personalize an adventure package to suit your needs without making it too tiring. You can limit your activities to a single theme such as beach activity day or mountain activity day, or you can go for the mixed bag.
While your group is busy having fun, remember to request your package provider to take plenty of photographs. There are many accommodation options but what's better than setting up camp around a bonfire under a starry sky; laughing, drinking and sharing the day's adventures together. After all, a stag party is about celebrating youth, freedom and friendship.
