Incentive itinerary: Sport in the Mendips

As a green city surrounded by countryside, Bristol is an excellent destination for getting delegates out of their comfort zones and into the great outdoors. 

Among the city’s parks and the nearby Mendip Hills, a designated National Landscape, you can throw yourself into adventurous incentive experiences of all kinds – from gentler pastimes like disc golf, to an exciting descent into the caves at Wookey Hole.
