Suggested itinerary (a little flexi depending on weather...)

  • First evening: we'll meet at the Vagabond hostel in Betws-y-Coed. Let's head out for dinner and work the plan out for the weekend.
  • The next morning we'll head out early to meet our guide. We plan to climb Yr Wddfa (formerly known as Snowdon) - the highest mountain in Wales. And we plan on doing one of the more interesting routes either the formidable Crib Goch, or avoiding the crowds maybe via the South Ridge. Obvs we'll end at the pub and that evening we'll go out for a drink or two in Betws y Coed.
  • On Sunday morning we are planning on doing another activity and we'll work it out via our WhatsApp group in advance; we cn do more hiking, we could find a swim spot, we could hire mountain bikes / E-bikes, we could go river rafting, zip lining, mountain karting, surfing on the surf lake or even underground trampolining! What do you fancy?
  • This will be the most amazing weekend and you HAVE to come. When you go back to work the next day and somebody says, 'do anything interesting at the weekend?'....
