Snowdon Challenge

On Sunday 4th May at 12.30 am 2026, we will be taking on an incredible challenge of climbing Snowdon through the night under a canopy of stars (hopefully).

Accompanied by qualified and experienced mountain leader(s) from Walk Snowdonia, we’ll be ascending this iconic UNESCO World Heritage Site, which has also been awarded the ‘International Dark Sky Reserve Status’, step by step, with one goal in mind – to reach the summit in time to watch the sunrise break across the mountains. It’s a truly breathtaking
sight and an unforgettable experience.

This challenge will push us both physically and mentally but every mile we walk represents our determination to make a difference. With each step we take we will be turning effort into impact.
