- **Event Start and End Date**: Fri, 10 Jul, 2026 at 09:00 am – Fri, 10 Jul, 2026 at 06:00 pm
- **Event Description**: ⛰️ A full-day mountain adventure across one of Eryri’s wildest landscapes

This is the kind of mountain day that stays with you.


A rugged, dramatic journey through the heart of the Glyderau — where shattered rock, jagged skylines, and glacial valleys create one of the most striking landscapes in all of Eryri. It’s wild, exposed, and endlessly photogenic… the sort of place that feels ancient the moment you step into it.


We’ll move through a landscape shaped by fire and ice, climbing steadily from the Ogwen Valley onto high ground where the terrain becomes otherworldly. Expect big climbs, rocky paths, sweeping views, and that unmistakable feeling of being properly in the mountains.


This is a challenging, committing day — but one that rewards every step with incredible scenery, shared effort, and a strong sense of achievement.

? About the Glyderau & Cwm Idwal
The Glyderau are among the oldest mountains in the UK, formed over 500 million years ago in a dramatic geological upheaval that once created peaks rivaling the Himalayas.


Over time, glaciers carved out the landscape we see today — leaving behind the dramatic cwms, ridges, and shattered rock formations that make this area so distinctive.


Cwm Idwal, designated a National Nature Reserve in 1954, is renowned for its rare arctic-alpine plants and rich wildlife, all set within one of the most striking glacial valleys in the UK.


Is This Walk Right for Me?
This is a challenging mountain day and best suited to walkers who:

Have good fitness and stamina

Are comfortable with steep ascents and descents

Are confident on uneven, rocky terrain

Enjoy or are wanting to progress to a full day in the mountains

Are up for a physical challenge in a supportive group

This is not a beginner walk — but if you’re ready to step into bigger mountain days, this is an unforgettable one.

There will be regular breaks, guidance throughout, and support from two experienced Mountain Leaders to help you get the most out of the day.
