After a very wet first day, the weather certainly improved and overall a great trip. The organisation could not have been better from booking and responding to our concerns and queries and throughout the trip. I love the fact that we were accommodated as individuals to our ability and comfort levels allowing us to feel challenged but not too pressured to affect our enjoyment. I know I wouldn’t have felt comfortable doing the steep scrambles and this was not an issue as we had options of alternative routes. Now looking forward to the next adventure.

Thanks you so much for a wonderful 3 days in Snowdonia. We thought that our guide was a fantastic guy - really calm and reassuring, reading the conditions and the pace of the group perfectly. And he was great value - always on time in the mornings and afternoons, and always cheerful. Thanks also for the delicious packed lunches! Once the muscles have recovered we’ll start thinking about our next challenge.

One of the best weekends of my life. The organisation of each day was fantastic. The Guides were brilliant with the group throughout the challenge. Always helpful, understanding and informative. Special mention to our Guide with him I spent most of the trip. Well done. You have given me a reason to keep on keeping fit. I will definitely be back for another challenge. Not felt as good as I did this weekend for years!

Oh yep, it's on like Donkey Kong. You've undertaken this thing and you're ready to tackle the weekend. First off you'll meet your guides for a quick brief then it's time to get cracking.
The first peak to bag is Foel Fras (942m). It's then on to Garnedd Uchaf (926m) to take in the unbeatable coastal views. We'll then keep chipping away at a few other impossible to pronounce peaks and finish off our day with Pen Yr Old Wen (970m). Once complete, we'll descend via the Ogwen Valley.
Approximately 8-10 hours hiking
After reminding yourself about no pain no gain and all that jazz, we're kicking off day 2 with the almighty Tryfan - the only mountain in England and Wales requiring hands to summit. Here we'll find the famous Adam and Eve standing stones (compulsory selfie here). It's then a short steep climb onto Glyder Fach (994m) and the well known (if you're into this kind of thing) Cantilever Rock. Glyder Fawr's (999m) up next for some of the best views Snowdonia has to offer. Y Garn (947m) and Elidir Fawr (924m) are the last peaks for today before heading back down into the Llanberis Pass.
Good game. Time for a hot shower and a well earned beverage.
Approximately 8-10 hours hiking
Day 3 and it's time for the biggie, Snowdon (and friends).
We'll ascend via Crib Goch - one of the most exciting scrambling routes in the UK - and then tick off Crib Ddysgl. And now the moment we've all been waiting for, Mount Snowdon, the highest peak in England and Wales, and our final peak.
Elated and exhausted, gobble down those 8 Wagon Wheels and 5 sarnies you've been lugging around all day. Skip for joy, snap a celebratory selfie with the gang, you've done it!
The only thing left to do is head back down the mountain revelling in your achievement and soaking up the stunning scenery via the Snowdon Horseshoe or Pyg Track route.
Congrats, the fat lady has officially sung.
