Price: Email for price
The Welsh 3000’s otherwise known as the 15 peaks is a challenge whereby we will hike, jog, scramble or possible crawl over the 15 peaks that are over 3000 feet above sea level. These peaks listed bellow are spread out across the 3 mountain ranges of yr Wyddfa, Carneddau and the Glyderau.
We will take you across some stunning and exciting terrain ranging from the open plateaus of the Carneddau to steep grade one scrambles on Tryfan and Crib Goch.
However you choose to take on this challenge whether it is in one day or over 3 you will undoubtedly challenge yourself by travelling over 30 miles in total with almost 3500m of height gain.
This is a tough challenge especially if done over a day so participants are required to have a relatively high level of fitness ideally with experience in walking in mountainous terrain over multiple hours. This will not only make the chances of success higher but create a more enjoyable experience for yourself.
