Glenn Hartley - Xterra Adventures
Owner and Head Instructor / Guide
Prior to starting up Xterra Adventures, Glenn worked in the NSW
Police Force for 20 years. He was stationed at a variety of locations
in both the city and country. He was primarily involved in general
duties, but also spent time in the Anti Theft Squad, Beats and
Highway Patrol before finishing in the Intelligence Section of
the Tuggerah Lakes Command.
Having retired from the Police Force, Glenn decided he needed
a ‘sea change’ and worked in a local kayak shop where
he qualified as a Sea Kayak Instructor and Guide.
In 2003 he started Xterra Adventures and along the way has established
an enviable reputation for offering quality kayak tours and courses.
Glenn’s reputation is such that, in 2005 he was asked to
travel to Espiritu Santo the largest island in Vanuatu. There he
spent two weeks working at developing kayak tours for a local resort.
Running kayak tours and Mountain
Bike Tours led Glenn into Adventure Racing and Triathlon.
He has completed two Australian Ironman triathlons and a heap
of Half Ironman triathlons.
Since retiring from triathlon he has focussed on Adventure Racing
and is now planning to do a bit of ocean ski racing.
Glenn provides an experienced, fun approach to his kayak tours
and courses. He has hand picked his staff to work in with his vision
of providing his clients with, relaxed, enjoyable, and often, life
changing experiences. |
