Event Details

Date: Saturday 12th July 2025

Location: Wales

Event Type: Trek/Hiking Challenge

Entry Fee: £20 Per Team

Introduction

This event is not a race, it is a team challenge. All team members must stay together where they can – safety in numbers! You will not be allocated a finishing time until all members have completed the mountain. So don’t rush, enjoy the scenery, snacks and your team members company.

A basic level of fitness will be required to complete the challenge, therefore we do recommend that you do some training in the build-up. It is your responsibility to ensure that you are fit enough to take on the challenge. It is important when arranging teams that they are matched appropriately, in terms of ability and fitness levels. *If a team member decides that they cannot continue after completing some of the hike, the overall teams result will not be affected.

Each team will be expected to obtain the appropriate level of insurance that covers them.

Challenge Objectives

The objective of this challenge is to climb Yr Wyddfa (Snowdon), Cadair Idris and Pen Y Fan, the three highest mountains in North, Mid and South Wales in around 18 hours.

Teams will be made up of 5 members, 4 walkers and one driver. The driver is a compulsory member of the team.

There will be checkpoints at each summit which our marshals will tick off each member of the team, only when all team members have checked in will a time be allocated. So please try and stick together at all times.
