A True Mountain Trail
If you love mountains and want to spend a whole week
exploring the classic mountains of Snowdonia in the
company of like-minded souls then this is the trail for
you!

From Quiet Cwms to High Mountain Tops
We'll be venturing past spectacular waterfalls and magnificent crags to the top of some of the most
delightful ridges in Europe. There are more than enough
wonderful walking routes to the summits (many over 3,000ft.)
to keep us busy for a glorious week of fell bashing
The Home of Mountaineering
Every night will be spent in a hotel, inn or guest house
each chosen for its special situation and the warmth of
its welcome. For instance, on Monday night you'll find
yourself following the footsteps of the famous as you
stay in the Pen y Gwryd Hotel. They have been welcoming
climbers here for 150 years. The team who first climbed
Everest in 1953 trained here and presented the hotel with
a piece of summit rock and other mementos on display in
the bar. |

Snowdonia's most famous Mountains
Snowdon, Tryfan, Glyder Fawr, Carnedd Llewelwyn - the
list reads like of roll call of Wales' classic peaks and
you'll get the chance to walk up them! Although the
places you'll stay are fixed in advance we alter the
routes to suit the weather, experience and wishes of the
group. In fourteen years of operation we've never had two
treks the same! Every week brings different weather and
different people and we pride ourselves in tailoring
routes to suit them all! |
Everything Included
As with all High Trek holidays, groups are small -
never more than six, your luggage is transported,
your packed lunches provided and you can borrow free of
charge any equipment you might need. At the end of the
week we'll give you a certificate showing the miles
walked, the height gained and the names of the mountains
you've climbed. We'll also be delighted to mark up a map
with your route. |
