Global Adventure utilises the outdoors to build strength in the four realms of human health.
So who are we?
Global Adventure was founded by Dave Hearn, who after ten years in the US Air Force, entered the world of leadership development and the non-profit sector. There, he mentored dozens of men and women and recognised one thread through them all: they wanted to live a life of purpose and adventure. But often they lacked the skills, the grit, and the work ethic to make that a reality. Out of these relationships, and towards the goal of changing that trend, Global Adventure was born.

FAQs
We know you've got questions, thats why we've tried to answer them here
We strive to make our events accessible for all. So please read about each event and get in touch with our team if you have any questions about the difficulty of each event. Some our events are guided walks on paved paths, some are camping in a field, and some are Grade 1 scrambles up some of the most majestic peaks in the world! Be assured that there is a Global Adventure event out there for every ability level.
"Outdoorsy" is a funny term, and one that might conjure images of people in flannel shirts eating bugs and drinking wee or uber-muscled free climbers on a rock face. Our belief is that the outdoors has something for everyone--fresh air, sunshine (or rain!), flora and fauna, and so we use the outdoors as our backdrop for amazing adventures. "Outdoorsy"? No. But Outdoors? Definitely.
It depends. Our main passion lies in activating men, breaking cycles of fatherlessness, and helping men of all ages grow and develop healthy habits and relationships. While some of our events are men-only, we have many events for mixed groups, women only, families, couples, and father-son/father-daughter pairs.
Why not? The best way to find out if a Global Adventure event is for you is to get in touch. Our friendly team will answer your questions honestly, so shoot us an email at info@global-adventure.org
The simple answer is no. While we do have paid events for those that can afford it, we offer free or reduced entrance to those who can not. Please reach out to us if finances are a barrier to your involvement. (We also raise funds by providing expert guides and trip leaders for other charities and organisations, if Global Adventure can help facilitate an event for you, please contact us. )
