YrWyddfa (Snowdon) Celebration Walking Social and Party Break 2024

We have quite a lot to celebrate this year. Having come through the pandemic to be stronger than ever we now find ourselves TEN YEARS OLD as a group which is a great achievement. It is likewise an amazing TWENTY FIVE YEARS since Gordon started organising walks and weekends away and still going strong!

This therefore is our Celebration weekend for those things and why not celebrate them alongside YrWyddfa or Snowdon as it is better known by using the weekend to ascend Snowdon all the different ways it is possible to do that AND have a celebration party on Saturday Night as well.

We have amended this writeup slightly towards this objective and haven't forgotten our commitment to offer the Welsh 3000 Challenge as well which we have now posted as a separate event.

This is therefore for everyone NOT doing the Welsh 3000 Challenge. Both groups share the same accommodation and domestic arrangements.

We hope to give participants the choice to tackle any of the main paths up and down Snowdon including Pyg, Miners, Watkins, Rhyd Ddu, Lanberis, Snowdon Ranger AND Crib Goch (if you have the confidence and ability to tackle the latter).

All food is provided from Friday dinner to packed lunch on Sunday but we have no staff as such so help is needed with preparation and clearing up on a voluntary basis. We do cater for most dietary requirements and preferences but please ask if unsure. All main meals are included but we don't normally provide biscuits, cakes or desserts so if you want to bring some of these to share that would be lovely.
YHA Snowdon Ranger is situated on the Beddgelert to Caernarfon road but is in an isolated spot with no pub or shops nearby so any drinks required need to be brought with you. Yes, we do stay up late, play board games and card games and will have a bit of music and dancing on Saturday night. so if you are a sensitive sleeper ear plugs can be a good idea.

The event is still available with a non-returnable deposit of £20 payable when you book, to which must be added Meetup booking fees. The balance of £69 will be payable by BACS 12 weeks prior to the event being 5th July 2024.
