Snowdon Sunrise Guided Walk 🌄

Watch the sun rise over Wales from the summit of Yr Wyddfa on this unforgettable guided hike.

Start your journey in the stillness of night, under the stars of Eryri’s Dark Sky Reserve. With only the sound of boots on the path and your headtorch guiding the way, you’ll climb steadily to the summit in time to watch dawn break across Snowdonia’s mountains. Few experiences compare to greeting the first light of day from the highest peak in England and Wales.
