FAQs

Do I need scrambling experience?
Not strictly, but a good level of fitness, a good head for heights and some hillwalking background is essential.

Is it dangerous?
Scrambling involves exposure and requires hands-on use of rock. Your guide will keep you safe, manage the pace, and adapt routes to conditions.

What if the weather is bad?
If conditions aren’t safe for Crib Goch, we’ll adapt to an alternative scrambling route.

Can I book privately?
Yes, bespoke weekends are available for groups, families, or corporate teams.
