Come and join us for our Snowdonia Hiking Weekend of relaxed walking in a small sociable group, sharing the adventure, making new friends and enjoying the authentic hostel experience.

Situated on the west coast of Wales, Snowdonia National Park is one of the most beautiful, historic and diverse landscapes of Britain, making it Wales’s undisputed activity capital.
It covers 823 square miles and is world renowned for its rugged landscape and geology, and Wales’s highest mountain, Snowdon, also known by its historical name Yr Wyddfa.

We arrive on Friday evening to be greeted by our Host, settle in and enjoy a lovely freshly prepared meal whilst getting to know each other. A little music, fun and games whilst sat around a real fire … but don’t get carried away, we’re up early and out for a full days hiking, taking in spectacular scenery, in and around the outstanding Ogwen Valley.

Bristly Ridge is one of Snowdonia’s most exhilarating and iconic scrambles. It takes you along a dramatic, rocky crest with exposed sections and technical moves, set against a backdrop of awe-inspiring scenery. As you ascend, you’ll be treated to panoramic views of Snowdon, Tryfan, and the surrounding peaks, making every step worth the effort.

This is not just a scramble; it’s a journey through the wild heart of Snowdonia. The route combines thrilling exposure, stunning natural beauty, and a sense of achievement that will stay with you long after the descent. And with me as your guide, you’ll experience the challenge in a safe and supported way.

After our first day of hiking, we return to our hostel late afternoon to reflect on a brilliant day’s trekking whilst being treated to another exceptional freshly prepared home cooked meal, followed by a great night of socialising!

After breakfast, Sunday sees us taking on another fantastic scramble up Penmaen-bach Arete!

This spectacular ridge offers a perfect blend of exposure, technical challenge, and incredible views, making it one of the must-do scrambles for those looking to test their limits while exploring the stunning landscape of North Wales.

It’s also one of the rare classic scrambles that gives you amazing views of North Wales’s rugged coastline.

A short scramble day that will live in the memory, concluding our Snowdonia Bumper Scrambling Weekend!

A unique and memorable experience not to be missed …
