We are excited to team up with Up and Under to encourage you to #OptOutside4Wales this summer.

So it’s time to grab your camera or smartphone, head somewhere in Wales, and take some snaps.

We welcome amateurs, professional photographers, Welsh-natives or those just stopping by on a trip to take part in #OptOutside4Wales.

The most important thing for us is that you get outdoors into the sunny mornings, the cloudy afternoons, the golden hours and the clear-skied starry nights.

The prizes

First Prize

We are giving away a pair of hiking boots worth over £100 from Up and Under!

Our first prize winner will be given a choice between a different selection of hiking boots.
