ONE-OFF – Easter Bank Holiday Special - we've managed to secure this hostel for the best Bank Holiday of the year - the only one with 4 days holiday...

This Easter Bank Holiday, we head to Cadair Idris, arguably the most dramatic mountain in southern Snowdonia, rising above the Mawddach Estuary with a long elevated ridge, a glacial lake near the summit, and wide-ranging views across the mountains and out to Cardigan Bay. Quieter and wilder than Snowdon, and accessible only on foot, Cadair Idris offers a more immersive mountain experience. We’ll also discover the stunning Welsh coastline with a scenic hike along the hills to Barmouth and across the vast and breathtaking Mawddach sand estuary - often considered the UK's most stunning estuary. On the final day we enjoy a gentler walk through woodland, valley tops, and along a lake. We stay in a remote rural hostel beside the River Gwynant that we've hired exclusively for our group, with two hikes starting directly from the hostel and only the final day requiring a short drive.

** Key Info**
• Nights: 3 (Fri-Mon)
• Cost: £296
• Difficulty: Intermediate and Tough (3 hikes: 2-3 hrs, 5-6.5 hrs, 6.5-8 hrs)
• ️ Meals Included: All breakfasts, all packed lunches, Sat & Sun dinner, cream tea

** Trip Highlights**
• Summit the majestic Cadair Idris (893m) on a stunning mountain hike
• Enjoy a stay at a remote and idyllic Rural Hostel on the banks of the River Gwynant, surrounded by woodland
• Hike the coastal estuary around Barmouth
• Explore the charming seaside town and golden sand beaches of Barmouth
• Discover mountain ridges, lakes, and valleys on a gentler final day hike
• Escape the crowds and experience the peaceful side of Snowdonia
• Enjoy a sociable group adventure in stunning natural surroundings

** Trip Description**
Cadair Idris is a spectacular mountain consisting of a 3km long elevated ridge and a glacial lake near the summit. It offers breathtaking views on a clear day – Mount Snowdon can be seen as well as views of Cardigan Bay and the sea.

Cadair Idris is 893m high and after we reach the summit we will have a lofty hike around the narrow rim of its cwm, offering breathtaking views in all directions. Snowdon attracts the masses due to being the largest mountain in Wales, while Cadair Idris is often considered the more rewarding mountain walk and a lot quieter.

On Sunday, we’ll ease off the altitude but keep the wow factor with a coastal and mountain hike to the seaside town of Barmouth. This route is a hidden treasure - a rugged and scenic climb into the hills where the sea meets the mountains. With sweeping views of the Mawddach estuary, coastline, and Snowdonia’s peaks, it’s a breathtaking contrast to the raw, alpine drama of Cadair Idris. After arriving in Barmouth, we’ll have free time to unwind and explore - with a walk along the beach, a coffee by the harbour, or a wander through its historic streets.

Monday offers a gentle finale - a peaceful hike through ancient woodland, glacial valleys, and alongside mountain lakes. This relaxed walk is ideal for stretching your legs one final time before the journey home. Though easier in pace, the scenery is still classic Snowdonia, with wild ridges, hidden trails, and tranquil waters reflecting the surrounding peaks. We aim to finish around midday, giving you plenty of time to make the drive home, rested and recharged from this mountain adventure.

** Itinerary**

Friday – Arrival
Arrive at our exclusively hired hostel accommodation booked in Snowdonia. Settle into your room, and meet your fellow hikers over a relaxed evening. The atmosphere is informal - no rush, just good company and excitement for the days ahead.

Saturday – Cadair Idris
• Distance: 13km (8 miles)
• Grading: Challenging (tough), some proper mountain hiking
• Ascent: 910m
• Hiking time: 5 - 6.5 hours

We’ll set out directly from the hostel on foot and join the Pony Track, a classic route up Cadair Idris - so no driving today. The path begins gently before opening into wide mountain views, steadily gaining height with every step. As we climb, the trail skirts the edge of the dramatic glacial cwm, revealing ever-expanding vistas of the surrounding peaks and valleys. There are sections that are very steep and some with loose scree/rocky zones.

Reaching the summit, you’ll be rewarded on a clear day with sweeping 360-degree views across Snowdonia, the Mawddach Estuary, Cardigan Bay, the Llyn Peninsula, and even the distant mountains of Ireland. After this challenging but unforgettable day on the mountain, we’ll return to the hostel for a well earned, hearty dinner.

Sunday – Barmouth Estuary
• Distance: 22km (14 miles)
• Grading: Intermediate/Tough - it's a long hike with hills too
• Ascent: 410m
• Hiking time: 6.5 - 8 hours

Discover the best of coast and countryside on this stunning circular hike to Barmouth.

We’ll set off from the hostel and follow a beautiful trail that brings us to the twin lakes of Llynnau Cregennen, perched high above the Mawddach Estuary. These glacial lakes sit in a spectacular setting, with Cadair Idris towering behind and sweeping views down to the sea. From here our route descends towards the coast, where we cross the famous Barmouth Bridge, a mile-long wooden railway viaduct with a footpath that spans the mouth of the estuary.

On the far side, there’s time to wander through Barmouth, a classic seaside town with a sandy beach and harbour. After exploring, we turn inland to join the Mawddach Trail – a former railway line now transformed into a scenic walking path. This gentle track hugs the estuary back towards Dolgellau, with views of tidal waters, salt marshes and mountain backdrops.

Our circular journey ends as we return on foot to YHA Kings, having completed a wonderfully varied day that combines mountains, lakes, estuary, seaside, and woodland in one memorable loop.

This evening, we have a simple and basic pizza dinner at the hostel.

Monday – Lakes and Ridge Walks
• Distance: 6km (4 miles)
• Grading: Beginner/Intermediate
• Ascent: 130m
• Hiking time: 2 - 3 hours

A gentle day today to relax and see a less known area.

Wander through ancient woods, along scenic ridgelines and through breathtaking valleys. Our hike finishes following the shore of a stunning mountain lake.

Typical finish time: midday/early afternoon, typically 12:30 to 1:30pm, so you have plenty of time for the drive back to London. This marks the end of the organised trip.

• Pass Birling Gap and the iconic Belle Tout Lighthouse
• Finish in Eastbourne — England’s sunniest town
• Explore the South Downs National Park — the newest in the UK

🥾 Hike Description
This is Outdooraholics’ most popular hike, a dramatic and exhilarating journey across the chalk cliffs of Sussex that we have been leading for over 12 years. The Seven Sisters are a spectacular series of gleaming white chalk cliffs formed at the end of the last Ice Age by glacial meltwater. Erosion has since created an “eighth sister,” and today the cliffs stand as one of England’s most iconic landscapes.

We begin in the coastal town of Seaford, home to a Napoleonic-era Martello Tower built in 1810 as part of a chain of 103 coastal defences against French invasion. From here, the trail climbs onto the cliff tops, where for much of the day we walk high above the sea, treated to endless coastal views and fresh sea air.

Our route follows the South Downs Way, passing through Birling Gap and past the striking Belle Tout Lighthouse, famously moved 17 metres inland in 1999 to save it from falling into the sea. The final highlight is Beachy Head, a dramatic beauty spot with sheer chalk cliffs dropping into the sea below.

We finish in Eastbourne, statistically England’s sunniest town, where we celebrate our coastal adventure with refreshments in a local pub.

Cliffs – danger
There are sheer drops off the cliffs and some of these soft chalk cliffs are crumbling at the edges with chunks regularly falling and no fencing in place. Please keep at least 3 metres away from the edges. If you fall, or the ground at the edge of the cliff collapses it will almost certainly be fatal.

10 апр. 2026 г. 10:30 BST

Naples International Airport, Aeroporto Internazionale di Napoli, Viale F. Ruffo di Calabria, 80144 Napoli NA, Italy, Napoli, na, IT

12th November update - This trip is full
But we have just added our final 2026 date: https://www.meetup.com/outdooraholics/events/312004303

We’ve run 29 successful Amalfi Coast trips over the years, making this the most popular week-long hiking holiday of any Meetup group in the UK

The Amalfi Coast is world renowned so we probably don’t need to tell you too much about this breathtaking rugged peninsula where a 1,100m high mountainous landscape lush with vegetation and wildlife drops rapidly into the glimmering sea far below. Set in Southern Italy, this whole area is a protected UNESCO World Heritage Site.

The Amalfi Coast is one of the most famous coastlines in Europe and offers some breathtaking walking including the “Path of the Gods” – considered one of the best coastal hikes in the world.

HIGHLIGHTS

• Visit the world famous Mount Vesuvius volcano
• Hike the famous "Sentiero degli dei" (Path of the Gods)
• Discover the ancient Roman city of Pompeii – frozen in time by the eruption of Mount Vesuvius nearly 2,000 years ago
• Stay in a boutique family owned Guest House high in the hills and with twin bedded ensuite rooms - The Casa Pendola LINK
• Three of the hikes starting from the guest house door
• Free Day with option to self guide a visit to the gorgeous island of Capri or visit Ravello mountain town
• Visit the chic and enchanting town of Positano – built into the mountain and nestling gently by the sea with a beach
• Hike to hidden waterfalls through lush forests in the dramatic Ferriere National Park – a quieter gem of the Amalfi Coast
• Explore the coastal town of Amalfi – which gives its name to this UNESCO listed coastline
• We can arrange a female upgrade to a semi private room instead of the standard twin shares, for details (whilst still available) please email us: info@outdooraholics.co.uk

HOLIDAY DESCRIPTION

We’ve designed this holiday to show you the greatest walks that this area has to offer as well as some of its world famous sights. The Amalfi Coast is dotted with seaside towns rich in history and boasts a timeless beauty interspersed with a lively, Italian buzz and vibrancy. A place you can really explore nature one minute in the remote mountains and feel really alive in the lively, Italian buzz by the sea a short while later.

Our hikes take us along ancient paths and mule tracks where in many places time has stood still. We’ve picked some great hikes that showcase this landscape and offer some awe inspiring views. We never quite escape the coastal views and the ever present sparkling turquoise sea below, reminding us just how high up these mountains are.

The Amalfi Coast is a very steep coastline where villages cling to steep rocky hillsides defying logic and almost gravity, with houses coloured in gentle pastel shades.

Important Notes:

The hikes on this trip vary in difficulty, with several involving long, steep descents and extended sections of rough, uneven terrain. Some trails cross rocks and boulders where the use of hands is required, and certain sections may not be suitable for those with vertigo. Although the trip includes some sightseeing, it is designed for fit, experienced hikers due to the challenging nature of the routes. The journey also involves twisty mountain roads, which may not suit those prone to travel sickness. Sturdy hiking boots with ankle support are recommended.

ITINERARY

Friday

There is a single fixed time complimentary transfer from the airport to our accommodation. We will then enjoy a relaxing evening meal and have time to get to meet each other in our wonderful rural mountainous surroundings. Our guest house is set outside the village a 10 to 15 minute walk away, so we escape the noise and stay in a more tranquil setting. The Guest House has an unheated swimming pool - subject to it being operational (it usually is).

Saturday

Hike: Bomerano circular
Distance: 10km (6 miles)
Grading: Intermediate, one tough uphill
Ascent: 490m

Today we have a lovely circular hike from our guest house. We take in a summit by Monte Tre Calli (1122m high) from which we can get some great and far reaching views of the Peninsula as well as the mountain villages near where we are staying. A short but perfect hike to get to know the area and get our bearings.

After the hike, you'll have free time to explore the charming village of Bomerano or unwind on the sun loungers by our private pool. For those interested, there’s also an optional visit to a local Limoncello workshop for a tasting experience.

Sunday

Hike: Bomerano to Amalfi via Valle delle Ferriere Park
Distance: Approx 16km (10 miles)
Grading: Challenging, some rough and uneven tracks and narrow paths in places
Ascent: 480m
Descent: 1100m

Another hike where we can just start from the guest house, we have some road walking at the start before departing into the dense wooded mountains on a breath taking trail that provides ever more tempting views of the lush wooded valleys and coastline that we will be exploring. With waterfalls, ancient ruins, mountain rivers and dreamy views this is quite a spectacular day of hiking. To finish it off we hike past scented lemon groves on a trail that delivers us to the coastal town of Amalfi which opens to the sea like a fan. We’ll have time to explore Amalfi’s historic streets and get some well deserved refreshments.

Monday

Free day. Why not take the time to yourself to relax by the guest house pool, indulge in one of Bomeranos numerous cafes or explore the surroundings? You can get a bus from Bomerano to Amalfi and then a bus or boat onto most locations on the Amalfi Coast.

Or you can visit Ravello - a small town considered to be one of the most romantic and beautiful places in southern Italy. Settled on steep terraced slopes high above sea level - this lovely town inspires with memorable coastal views high above the coast below.

Should you desire a more exotic experience - you can visit the island of Capri. Capri is one of Italy’s most stunning islands – a favourite for Roman Emperors who built their villas here.

There is no guide for today, it is a free day and whatever option you choose is self guided, the guide can advise on them all and logistics.

Tuesday

Day trip to Vesuvius and Pompeii

Vesuvius is a world renowned volcano that dramatically brought an end to the Roman towns of Pompeii in its great eruption of 79 AD. Its fertile soil helps provide some of the great tasting local tomatoes and grapes for the local wines.

Pompeii is an experience to visit, the ruins being mesmerising, fascinating and quite poignant. It’s surprisingly well preserved for a 2000 year old town and is huge, a true time capsule from the days when the Roman Empire ruled much of the world as you walk around this Roman town. Pompeii offers a fascinating glimpse into the everyday life of the ancient Roman world including the remains of bakeries, brothels, baths and numerous cobbled streets. You can explore this site either by yourself or join the private organised tour we arrange with our local guide.

Visiting Vesuvius is subject to weather conditions and also tickets being released to the public for sale, they are not always available, if they are not available for our trip dates we will have a short walk on Vesuvius to a historic lava flow instead of visiting the summit.

Wednesday

Hike: The famous "Sentiero degli dei" (Path of the Gods)
Distance: Various options, the longest is 20km (12 miles)
Grading: Intermediate/Tough depending on option you choose
Ascent/descent: various options from 350m to 780m

We’re saving this epic hike until our last full day. We hike a winding trail that delicately hugs the rugged mountains as it follows their twists and turns. We get the most dramatic and lofty views of the trip as for much of the hike we can look down to the sea far below. We pass ancient houses, vineyards, woodland and a goat farm.

We visit Positano – considered to be the most picturesque and photogenic town on the coastline. Steeply stacked houses literally tumble down the mountain towards the sea dotted with the most diverse range of pastel colours creating quite a captivating setting. We explore the town losing ourselves in a maze of alleys, a visit to the beach and no doubt a good cafe too are on the cards. You can also explore some very chic boutique shops.

Today offers several route options. The guide will hike the full Path of the Gods, continue down to Positano, and then return the same way to the guesthouse. You can choose to shorten the route at various points, with options including a coastal boat ride or a bus journey. On the day, you can decide whether to take the public bus into Positano or walk down the roughly 1,700 steps.

Thursday

After breakfast, we head to the airport. If you’d like to stay on, Rome is just 1 hour 15 minutes away by high-speed train from Naples, with regular flights back to London. After the airport we have a 2nd complimentary stop at Naples central train station.
