Guided Walks in Snowdonia
The Snowdonia National Park in North Wales offers some of the best Hillwalking in the United Kingdom and I heartily recommend the area. The highest of these hills are the "Welsh 3000s", 15 mountain peaks all over 3000 feet (914.4 metres) above see level
"Just got home after the most exciting and challenging day I've had in years on a guided walk in Snowdonia - thank you very much for making the trip so memorable.", Danny
There is far more to Snowdonia than just Snowdon. The light green area shows the National Park, the Red Circle is around Snowdon itself, to give an idea of scale.
There are many discrete groups of mountains, each with there own character, each with delights and challenges. Take a look at some of my pages on some of the differing mountain groups.The links are above
The walks below are some of my favourite Snowdonia walks and are listed here as examples of guided walks on offer. Some of these walks are very popular, some are very quiet
Nantlle Ridge Traverse
Spend a full day traversing this unfrequented mountain range to the west of Snowdon. A rugged end to end walk, a definite tick!
Bochlwyd Horseshoe
A long time favourite of mine. A tough, full day walk in the wilds of the Glyderau range, taking in two of the Welsh 3000s, lots of ascent!

An opportunity for you to climb the Highest Mountain in England and Wales
A stunning mountain in the heart of the Moelwynion region of Snowdonia. Also know as the "Matterhorn of Wales"
Given a good days weather, incredible views of the Welsh Coast and Snowdonia will open out in front of you. The view is worth the climb!
Probably "the Best Mountain Day in Britain". A demanding route of scrambling and walking. Photo is of Crib Goch (Red Comb)
The Welsh 3000's
3 Days of Classic Mountain Adventure. Includes Crib Goch & half of the Snowdon Horseshoe
Obviously you do not need a Mountain Leader to join you if you are experienced enough, but Snowdonia is a region with some big mountains and real risks. Going with a Mountain Leader on an organised walk or simply privately hiring and doing something specifically tailored to your requirements
Mark Wormald is available to lead walks in Snowdonia, and if he isn't able to accomodate you he can put you into contact with other full members of the Mountain Leader Training Association, ie qualified and experienced leaders
Any walk will be tailored to the requirements of the party
Walks can be over half day, full day, or if you want more, over multiple days.
The multiple days would require camping or using bunkhouse or hostel accommodation, which I can book at an extra cost. However you can if you wish arrange B&B privately.
