Ever wanted to watch the sunrise from the top of one of the UK’s highest mountains?
Join us for our summer expedition to the summit of Snowdon on Saturday 7th August! By the light of the moon (and head torches) we’ll follow the Llanberis path in a 3-4 hour climb to the top (1,085m), and descend into daylight as the sun rises across the mountains of Snowdonia, before enjoying a celebratory breakfast.
With a walking distance of around 9.5 miles the trek takes between 6-8 hours, depending on your fitness level and how often you stop to take photos! This is a fully guided tour with snacks and breakfast included in the price, however you will need to make your own way to the meeting point in Llanberis.
