About Action Outdoors
Action Outdoors was founded in 2004 by Mark Gillis and David Robertson through their frustration of searching for a reasonably priced way to go skiing...
For many years their ski holidays were spent squeezed into a tiny French ski apartment with a large group of mates. The final straw was in 2002, when they had 14 people in an "8" person apartment resulting in friendships being put to the test.
A chance meeting in a bar led to contact with UCPA so their holiday in 2003 was spent at UCPA Val d'Isere. From this discovery of "how the French go skiing" a partnership with UCPA was agreed in 2004 and Action Outdoors has since introduced thousands of UK clients to the concept.
Every year more & more adventure sports lovers discover the UCPA way of life and Action Outdoors has gone from strength to strength. They offer a selected range of centres & activities which appeal to the English speaking market and combine that with convenient, value for money, transport options from the UK.
Mark Gillis left the company in 2008 to explore other adventures, David Robertson still continues to lead the dynamic team at Action Outdoors.
The ethos is still very much sport orientated - with the whole team being actively involved in various sports throughout the year.
