At Landcraft we organise driving events throughout the year, both on our own behalf and for other organisations. We host regular off-road driving days that cater for all levels of skill and provide training sessions for those new to off-road driving. All of our driving events are held on private land and are supervised by experienced marshals, so help is always at hand if needed.
We have also arranged several days throughout the year which are aimed at specific vehicles in the Land Rover family. Hence the "Range Rover", "Freelander", "Discovery", "Defender" and "Leaf Sprung" days. The tracks and routes on these days will be chosen to suit these particular vehicles (although all 4x4's are of course welcome) so they are geared-up to provide a good days off-roading which can be enjoyed by all drivers of those vehicles without them feeling that they cannot attempt some routes.
We will also be attending many of the off-road shows throughout the UK. The Landcraft team also officiate at many motor sport events throughout the year.
We are hosting more of the popular activities introduced over the 20 year. Set on private land many of the tracks have only been driven by a handful of vehicles and some of the tracks have only been explored so far on foot! If you have driven off-road before and looking for something challenging these events are not to be missed. The aim is to cover as many routes as possible in one day and, time-permitting, we will end with an unknown or little-used route to add to the challenge of the day. The Adventure Drives offer the chance to drive off road, but with the added bonus of seeing some beautiful countryside which would be very difficult without the aid of a 4x4.
We at Landcraft with Land Rover Experience Cheshire & Snowdonia would like to invite you to join us on one of our day long Snowdonia 4x4 Adventure Drives through the beautiful mountains and forests of North Wales.
Usually starting in the Bala area, it will take you through stunning scenery with spectacular views along forest tracks and hillsides, all on private land, available only to LRE Snowdonia. These Drives will be open to any 4x4 Fully Legal Road Taxed Vehicles. (No quads, no vehicles on trailers.)
You will need to use four wheel drive, but the tracks chosen will be suitable for all Land Rovers, and all other makes of 4x4s are welcome. There will be alternative routes in places to take into account the differing capabilities of the vehicles and skills of the drivers.
All drivers must hold a full driving license and all other passengers must be seated on a proper seat and wearing their seat belt, if fitted. They will start at around 9.30 and run till about 4, so you will need lots of fuel and sandwiches. They are not suitable for non participating spectators.
As some of the land used is farm land, dogs must be on a lead at all times.
You will be travelling with a group of like-minded Land Rover owners led by experienced instructors who will be on hand to offer you advice and guidance should you require it.

Adventure Plus Days
For those looking for something more challenging we will be running some Adventure Plus Days. These are aimed at people who have already attended several Adventure Drives and are looking to move on. You will need more aggressive off road tyres, substantial recovery points and so on, in fact a vehicle equipped for serious off roading. We will take you to more challenging terrain, and although, as always, the aim is to get as much driving as possible during the day, there is a greater possibility of spending longer periods stuck, or assisting other who are stuck. Dates for 2010 are:
24th January, 28th March, 25th April
23rd May, 4th July, 19th September
17th October, 28th November
All these dates, Adventure and Adventure Plus, are provisional depending on sufficient numbers of bookings being received. All vehicles must be in an appropriate condition (any correctly maintained Land Rover should be sufficient)
The cost of the Snowdonia 4x4 Adventure and Adventure Plus will be £45 per vehicle,

Our driving events are designed to cater for all tastes. If you have a showroom condition vehicle and want to keep it that way, many of the Landcraft organised events have facilities to allow you to enjoy your vehicle's capabilities to the full without having to risk damage. We would normally suggest an Adventure Drive for a good day out off-roading - please see this years' dates above.
Although if you want the excitement of axle deep mud, bonnet high water, and hills that disappear into the horizon we provide that too! All in a well-supervised environment that means if you need assistance it's not too far away. In this case a Safari Drive would seem appropriate - please see this years' dates above.
