Overview

Chris is leading a 9 mile strenuous/technical walk.

According to The Times Newspaper this is surprisingly meant to be the best walk you can do in Snowdonia! And there are not hoards of people taking selfies on top. There is an excellent chip shop and pubs at the end also.
Needless to say, it was a very challenging walk with dramatic views. Walkers must be highly fit and prepared to scramble

Accomodation options for friday and saturday nights
The first one has camping pitches also
