Snowdon At Night Trek

Trekking Mt Snowdon (1,085m) during the daytime forms a great challenge, but by using torches to light your way and having the moon as our backdrop, summiting at night brings another sense of achievement to an already recognised charity trek.

Seeing the sunrise across Snowdonia National Park will be a memory never forgotten! Upon your descent, you will witness the breath-taking mountain range open up to give glorious views and afterwards we tuck into a delicious celebration breakfast!

St Catherine’s Hospice has teamed up with Global Adventure Challenges who will be hosting this event on our behalf.

Itinerary with Global Adventure Challenges 

Day 1
We meet in Llanberis in the evening for event registration and briefing. Walking straight to the start we use the Llanberis Path and our ascent should take approximately 3 – 4 hours. We’ll be using our head torches to light our way and the tranquillity of experiencing this mountain at night will never be forgotten.

Day 2
We celebrate our achievements once we summit and begin our descent using the same trail. The descent will take approx. 2-3 hours and upon reaching our finish line in Llanberis, we celebrate with a well-earned breakfast. Please note this is a complex itinerary, and is subject to change.

• Snacks along the route and breakfast on completing the challenge
• Qualified Global Adventure Challenges leaders
• Vehicle for back up and support
• Challenge Medal

What’s not included
