Berghaus athletes Leo Houlding, Sir Chris Bonington, and Mick Fowler are among the greatest living adventurers, according to national newspaper the Telegraph.

The three athletes were acknowledged in the Telegraph’s ‘top 20 great British adventurers’, in recognition of the new boundaries they have set, and genuine firsts they have achieved in their respective careers. 

Climbing protégé Leo Houlding takes eighth place within the top ten.  Leo is cited as ‘a pioneer of para-alpinism – climbing huge rock faces then BASE jumping back down again’. Leo goes on to describe the sport as ‘…bloody dangerous and highly addictive.’

Sir Chris takes second place on the list of leading adventurers.  Described as ‘arguably the most prolific climber of the world’, his first ascents and exploration of unknown mountains has secured his place among the elite.

We’re sure that Leo’s expedition to climb Mount Asgard will help confirm his as a truly great British adventurer.
