Pick between two unique trekking routes

Multi-Peak Trek

This route heads away from the town of Llanberis before ascending into the mountains. As you trek ever higher you will conquer a succession of five different summits: Moel Elio, Foel Gron, Foel Coch and Moel Cynghorion, before the grand finale of Yr Wyddfa .. Snowdon itself! You will then begin your descend via the Llanberis path to the finish line and receive a very well-deserved celebratory drink. Total distance is 21.6km with a total ascent of 1608m and walking time is approximately 10 hours.

Classic Snowdon Climb

The Classic Snowdon climb may be slightly shorter, but hiking the highest Mountain in England & Wales is a significant & memorable challenge. Starting, you head up the valley, away from the Llanberis before joining up with the Snowdon Ranger path and hiking to the famous mountain peak. From here you will descend via the beautiful Llanberis path to the finish and a warm welcome back at the hotel. Total distance is 17.5km with a total ascent of 1118m. Walking time is approximately 6 – 7 hours.
