ITINERARY

Day 1:

2.30pm - 5.30pm: Dinorwig Quarry Explorer walk.  We’ll kick off our walking weekend with a relaxed but fascinating loop into one of North Wales’ most dramatic man-made landscapes: Dinorwig Quarry, part of the UNESCO World Heritage-listed Slate Landscape of Northwest Wales. 

3 hours, 6.5km (4 miles), 280m ascent, Intermediate - a mix of well maintained paths and some uneven quarry terrain.

Day 2:

Sonni will prepare a delicious cooked breakfast.

6-7 hours, 14.5km (9 miles), 760m ascent, advanced - full mountain day, rough ground, uneven terrain


Today is the heart of our walking weekend: a classic Snowdonia mountain circuit that ticks off four significant peaks in the northern Glyderau. We’ll be encircling the hidden upland reservoir of Marchlyn Mawr, climbing some of the finest high ground above Llanberis—including the proud and rugged summit of Elidir Fawr.

We begin with a steady climb from the hostel, quickly gaining height and looking back over yesterday’s slate-scarred landscape as we head toward the open mountainside.


You will have a packed lunch for during the walk. 


After the walk you'll have some time to rest before joining the group for dinner at the hostel.


6pm-7pm: Dinner

After Saturday’s big mountain day, today’s route offers a gentler—but no less inspiring—exploration of Padarn Country Park, circling the glacial lake of Llyn Padarn and discovering the beauty, history, and hidden gems scattered throughout this stunning corner of Snowdonia.

Starting from our hostel, we walk directly into Padarn Country Park, an 800-acre (324 ha) area of protected landscape that combines ancient oak woodland, slate heritage, tranquil lakeside paths, and incredible views toward the surrounding mountains—including the unmistakable profile of Yr Wyddfa (Snowdon).

                "description": "Our ambition is to create Wellness Holidays that offer value for money, excellent service and great experiences in beautiful locations.Throughout the year we offer itineraries in various locations that individuals can book on to.We create Group Wellness Holidays using hotels, B&Bs and occasionally retreat style accommodation for exclusive use. We hire local instructors / guides to provide an itinerary of wellness activities throughout your stay. These are not \"hosted\" holidays as you might expect on a group retreat, and we typically offer 1 or 2 classes per day, in the morning and/or evening so during the day you usually have free time to do your own thing.We give you suggestions for your free time, and where possible we can offer optional add ons. We always provide details of self guided walks in the area.Wellness activities take place either at your accommodation (if there is a suitable space), or in community centres / halls within reasonable walking distance of your accommodation.Activities vary by holiday, but could include:YogaPilatesQigongTai ChiSound/Gong bathWild swimmingGuided meditationGuided walkForagingReikiZumbaHIIT (High-intensity interval training)PaddleboardingPrivate GroupsIf you are looking for something a little different to the published holidays, we can tailor an itinerary to your groups needs, within your specified dates and duration.Or if you wish to book a published holiday for a private group we can close off the date for you, as long as there is nobody else booked on. A special group rate can be discussed.LocationWe use locations where there is a variety of walks in the area, a good standard of accommodation that is comfortable, and either has an indoor space for classes on site, or is within walking distance of one.AccommodationWe visit every accommodation featured to ensure service levels and comfort are of a high standard.Some holidays are based in B&B’s / small hotels, some are in larger houses (that sleep up to approx. 14 people)  for exclusive use, and some may be in bunkhouse / glamping style accommodation. We want to offer something for everyone.MealsThe meals included depend on the location and type of holiday. If using a town where there is ample choice of restaurants, we tend to include breakfast but leave lunch and dinner to you. If rural, with little or no choice of restaurants nearby, we include all meals, but where possible we give you the option to self cater if you want to.Group SizesGroup sizes vary depending on the accommodation. Where possible we will run with 4 people, and we generally limit groups to 14 people. Average group size is likely to be 8 people.Each holiday has to reach a certain number before we can guarantee it will run. This number varies depending on the holiday and accommodation used. In some places we are able to create an affordable wellness holiday with a minimum group size of 4-6.If you book a holiday and we are unable to run it, you will be offered an alternative holiday, or a full refund within 7 days of cancellation. Read more about our booking terms and conditions here.Numbers are monitored, and at 6 weeks out, we will give you an indication of group size, so you know if your holiday is likely to run or not. At a minimum of 4 weeks out, we will let you know if it is guaranteed to run, or if we have to cancel."
