The Challenge

Majestic Mount Snowdon dominates the glorious ancient landscape of North Wales. At 1,085 metres, (3,560 feet) it is a true mountain and a place of legend – said to be the burial place of the giant ogre Rhita, vanquished by King Arthur.

During the walk you will see lots of evidence of ice-carved landscape with enormous boulders left perched by the retreating glaciers. On fine days the views along the ridge of the summit are truly breathtaking.

Our route to the summit will follow The Llanberis Path up and down – 10 miles (14.5km) return. The walk will take approximately 6-8 hours and the grade is moderate. The Llanberis Path is not the shortest but it is the easiest in terms of steepness and terrain, with an obvious path all the way up to the top. The path was originally used as a pony and mule track to carry tourists up from Llanberis.

Cost excludes drinks and travel to / from Llanberis.
