Snowdon Horseshoe Challenge

Scrambling up to Crib GochSummit of Garnedd Ugain with Snowdon in the backgroundY Lliwedd summits

 

The Snowdon Horseshoe Challenge involves walking and scrambling across the main summits of the famous Snowdon range in North Wales.

You will cover a distance of 7 miles and ascend over 3,000ft. 

The walk will cover the 4 peaks of the Snowdon Horseshoe including the ridge of Crib Goch (3,028ft) with its steep sides and amazing views across all the Welsh 3000ft mountains, along the top of Crib-y-Ddysgl to get to the summit of Garnedd Ugain (3,494ft), onto the highest point in England and Wales, the summit trig point of Snowdon (3,560ft), and finally over the 3 main tops to reach the summit of Y Lliwedd (2,946ft), the last of our Snowdon Horseshoe summits.

Then walk back down to the start and drive down to your 3* hotel for a well deserved celebration meal and drink after one of the best ridge walks in Britain.

This challenge involves traversing Crib Goch and those suffereing from vertigo or who have problems with heights should not attempt it!!

All food and accommodation is provided on this challenge with 1 night in an en-suite youth hostel and 1 night at a 3* hotel.
