Snowdon Summit via The Famous Crib Goch

< Back to Events

Whats Involved?

Located in the Snowdonia region of Wales lies THE most challenging route up Mount Snowdon. This adrenaline fuelled ascent will be sure to put you in touch with mother nature.

This thrilling Grade 1 scramble is one of the country’s most popular ridges – so what does it take to tackle Crib Goch?

Ask any hill walker to name you a few classic scrambles, and Crib Goch will almost certainly get a high-priority mention. Not only does this cracking stickleback ridge offer the wildest and most exciting way up Wales’ highest peak, it also scores ten out of ten on views, exposure and general scrambly fabulousness. Add to that the low technical difficulty (it’s a Grade 1, the lowest rating on the scrambling scale) and you’ve got a recipe for one of the best hands-on-rock days out in the country. The ultimate bucket list tick. – BMC (British Mountaineering Council).

Are you up to this BIG challenge? Have you got the minerals to be able to say you have completed this next level scramble?! If so, we want you to SHOW US!

Total ascent: 1085m/3559ft.

 

Weather Forecast: Long range forecast looks promising, full update will be given during event briefing.
