Short break adventures

Short break adventures

For many people, getting away from the office and doing something active for a long weekend is the best way to return reinvigorated and refreshed. There are a whole range of places you can visit for a short break adventure from the Alps to Northern Africa and the Middle East.

In the Alps, you can escape for a weekend of off-piste skiing and ski touring. In North Africa head to the Atlas Mountains for a few days walking around Mt Toubkal. In Jordan, travel to the Dead Sea and explore the Mujib Nature Reserve, traversing wadis and canyons. Here are some examples of the destinations that we think offer superb short break adventures.
