About the Event

An expedition with Malvern College that will cost £275 per cadet inclusive of everything including accommodation at Malvern College before and after the course, food, specialist equipment etc. It will be very similar to the expedition with Malvern College that took place in February 2020 which included activities such as:

  • Ice awareness / climbing / igloo construction
  • Snow holing / Avalanche Survival skills
  • Mountain Trekking and overnight shelter in a Mountain Bothy

This can be used as a residential or practice expedition for gold DofE.
