active-traveller Competitions

We’ve teamed up with Outdoors Magic and Italian brand AKU this month to give you a chance at winning their latest offering for 2026 – the Adapta Light GTX hiking boots. Built for fast and light mountain missions – from what we’ve seen so far, there’s a lot to like here. The AKU Adapta Light GTX boots are designed for hikers who want lightweight performance without sacrificing the protection or support you’d get from a burlier boot – something like the AKU Superalp Nubuck GTX boots, for example.

We've teamed up with Outdoors Magic and Altberg to offer you and your companion of choice a weekend away in the stunning Yorkshire Dales. Including luxurious accommodation, an Altberg factory tour, personalised boot fittings and a guided hike - what's not to like?

The winner of this spectacular competition will receive a seven-night stay for two in Gran Canaria, with five nights in Sport Hotel Monte Feliz*** - powered by Playitas, and two nights in Parador Cruz de Tejeda**** on a half board basis. €50 to spend in Monte Feliz on the activities to choose from the court reservations, drinks at the pool bar or sport bar, private tennis/paddle tennis lessons or sports equipment. Spa experience for 2 in Parador Cruz de Tejeda. Star Gazing experience at Parador Cruz de Tejeda is offered for free to their clients on Thursdays. Car rental for the entire stay on the island to pick up and drop off at the airport.
