Adventures for the Soul

Adventures for the Soul Magical dark sky, nature and walking experiences in North Yorkshire & further afield. Hi I'm Alison. Magical places where you can sit and be during the day.

I run Adventures for the Soul - a small business offering magical outdoor experiences to soothe your soul in the North York Moors & further afield. These experiences allow you to press the pause button on your busy life and take you away from the everyday. See star-filled skies and stunning locations off the beaten track. Or challenge yourself a little with something that takes you out of the ordinary. But these are not just any old outdoor experiences. You'll also learn how to calm your mind and reconnect with this world again. Rediscover tools you can use anytime you need them. The result? You'll feel amazing... and more like the YOU you left behind...

Why choose Adventures for the Soul? I work and live here and know all of those little secret places to go. The collaborators I work with are also highly knowledgeable - in fact they're the best in their field. We know when to visit iconic locations when the crowds have gone home - or where to take you so you can get away from it all. Overall, we think you'll have a wonderful experience!

In 6 weeks time we start our season with this totally magical event at in the Yorkshire Dales National Park . It just so happens it is one if my favourites too!

Steeped in mystery and myth, promises to provide an adventure like no other...This event coincides with , which will make it even more exhilarating since this whole area exudes atmosphere when it is very dark.

We’re running this at the new moon so if clear it is perfect to observe the stars and planets - and it will be perfect conditions to practise a bit of night walking - without a torch!

Eclipse ready….. so is half of North Yorkshire. Never seen so many people at Sutton Bank and White Horse!! Great to see so many people enthusiastic about the eclipse and dark skies !

If you live in a city and you have a clear night sky you can still see objects like the Moon or the planets and some bright stars. ✨
You ‘ll be able to see around 30-40 stars. If you find yourself at a Dark Sky place on the same clear night, you’ll be able to see around 3,000 stars. This is how light pollution affects our view of the night sky, with Artificial Light at Night removing all but the very brightest objects in our sky and disconnecting us from our night sky heritage. 🌃💡
