Overview

Are you ready for an epic mountain adventure embracing rugged mountains of Snowdonia in winter? Covering 7 of Snowdonia’s (Eryri) renowned mountains, this journey will take you through spectacular landscapes and test your mettle on a tough 3-day adventure.

While the winter conditions can add extra challenges in the mountains, it also offers a great opportunity to develop your knowledge of the environment and experience the raw beauty of the Welsh peaks amidst a serene and stunning setting.

Previous winter walking experience is not essential, however a good level of fitness and mountain trekking experience is recommended. The weather can be extreme, so you’ll need to be prepared for all conditions. Please note, some routes and mountains may become impassable and unsafe. On these occasions an alternative route will be taken.

The aim of this trek is to experience Snowdonia in winter in a safe and enjoyable manner plus get an understanding of the environment, the local people and way of life and learn some winter trekking skills. It’s not a winter mountaineering or skills weekend per se. Due to the shorter daylight hours, we aim to finish around 3.30pm and enjoy a hot tea & cake in a local cafe.

So whether you’re a solo trekker or part of a small group, we’re really excited to welcome you to Snowdonia (Eryri) and showcase the very best of this amazing environment in winter time.

Evening prior

Arrive in historic coastal town of Caernarfon in North Wales where you’ll meet your fellow team-mates and your local mountain leader to receive a trek briefing ready for your winter adventure ahead. You’re then free to have dinner at the hotel or choose from a great selection of nearby local restaurants. Please note, dinner is at your own expense.

This is the seventh highest Welsh peak, the same height as England’s Scafell Pike. On reaching the summit you’ll be rewarded with breath-taking views of the entire Ogwen Valley to the Glyders and beyond.  

It’s then time to tackle one of the finest ridge walks in Snowdonia as your route continues northwards towards Carnedd Dafydd, the third highest peak in Wales at 1044 metres and then onto the dome-shaped plateau to summit Carnedd Llewelyn, the highest point of the Carneddau and the second highest peak by relative height in Wales at 1064 metres. This area is the largest expanse of uninhabited highland in England and Wales and the view of all the peaks of the Carneddau is spectacular, especially if covered in snow.

This is a rewarding experience offering superb views across the summits around Ogwen – from the previous days peaks of Pen Yr Ole Wen, Carnedd Dafydd, Carnedd Llewelyn and across to Tryfan and Snowdon in the distance.

Please note, this winter adventure take place in the mountains of North Wales. Things change in the mountains, particularly at during the winter months. Your perfectly planned itinerary may change a bit (or a lot) if the weather turns, someone gets hurt, or if there is ice cover. Usually though, changes make it all the better and you’ll discover other parts of Snowdonia along much less trodden  lowland paths.

Why go
A new trek during off-peak season

Since the COVID-19 pandemic hit our local tourism industry having a huge impact on local communities and livelihoods, we’re keen to develop new adventures on home ground particularly during the off-peak season to help support the local tourism industry whilst also giving you the chance to get out and explore our incredible landscapes in a safe manner.

This trek has been designed to deliver an amazing experience and showcase the some of the most epic landscapes in North Wales during winter time whilst also giving you the chance to learn new skills and gain a greater understanding of the mountains, local environment and winter weather.

Carbon Footprint

We’ve crunched the numbers to work out the total carbon footprint of the Snowdonia 7 Summits, and plant or protect enough trees to suck 2x as much back out the atmosphere.

What’s the number?
It works out on average at 115kg of CO2 emissions per person, including all local transport, accommodation, food, activities, leaders, crew and office operations.

The only thing not included is travel to Snowdonia. Given that our beloved guests travel from all parts of the UK for this adventure we have no way of reliably knowing their travel plans therefore we’re unable to include an individual number in the figure on display here.

What does the number mean?
To give you a snapshot of the numbers:

  • Driving 1000miles/1609km would be approx. 281kg of CO2 in an average car (or 140.5kg per person if there was 2 of you).
  • A return economy class flight London – New York would be approx. 1,619kg (1.66 tonnes) per person.
  • 10 trees in a temperate forest are estimated to remove approx. 250kg of CO2 from the air over a period of 5 – 10 years.

What are we doing about it?
Our adventures are relatively low-carbon by design, and we’re working to develop long term carbon reduction plan. Following much research into climate change organisations, we carefully selected to support the environmental charity, Cool Earth. They’re a sustainable operation and work with rainforest communities across the globe to halt deforestation and it’s impact on climate change. We invest 1% of our revenue into supporting critical conservation projects world-wild with Cool Earth.

On a local level, we’re an ongoing business member of the Snowdonia Society, plus Jim and Sue, together with some of our local leaders, also help the Society with their local projects such as planting native trees in Snowdonia. This is to help preserve the landscape and enhance wildlife habitat here in Snowdonia.

Want to know more?
We believe that with great travel, comes even greater responsibility. Tourism is one of the most important and largest industries on the planet. It employs more people worldwide than any other, with millions of families relying on tourism for their daily needs. At Adventurous Ewe we believe that our type of small scale, positive impact tourism can bring benefits to many communities, help preserve the environments we travel to see, and provide real and positive social exchanges. Here is our plan to do our part towards helping reduce factors that we can contributing to climate change as part of Tourism Declares a Climate Emergency.

Winter trekking top tips
  • Dress the part and layer up – base layer, insulating layer and shell. Base layer that wicks perspiration away from your skin (merino wool base layers are ideal), a mid layer that insulates you from the cold and a shell layer that keeps wind and moisture out
  • Ensure you have water-proof stiff soled hiking boots that are well worn in
  • Wear synthetic or merino wool socks that fit well. Thicker socks provide more insulation, but make sure they don’t cause your boots to fit too tight. It’s also important to keep your feet dry, so have an extra pair of socks to change into.
  • Train in your trekking kit. Including your hiking boots & socks and wearing of your daypack with weight inside, in varying weather conditions so you know your kit is both suitable and comfortable for your big challenge
  • Have two bags – a daypack for the trek with your trekking kit (waterproofs, warm layers, packed lunch, snacks, water, first aid, factor 50 sunscreen & any medication). And your main luggage/duffle style bag with all your other items which you can leave at the hotel
  • Pack your kit inside a dry bag just in case
  • Wear lightweight or midweight fleece gloves under waterproof shell
  • When it’s cold, you might be less inclined to stop for food and water. Make it simple by keeping snacks and water within reach so you can eat and sip regularly throughout the trek
  • Bring your favourite high calorie snacks. Remove as much packaging as possible before taking it on the trek (less litter to carry)
  • Bring your own water bottle, a Water-to-Go bottle is ideal, plus a camelbak./platypus that you can refill and avoid plastic bottles
  • Be respectful of the local communities, the people, the weather and the environment

Most importantly……SMILE & ENJOY THE ENTIRE EXPERIENCE
