Our Welsh courses are based in and around the Snowdonia National Park in the heart of North Wales. This area of Wales has a very high concentration of quality climbing and mountaineering in a small area. It has a vast array of classic rock climbs and scrambles and is considered by many to be the home of British rock climbing.
There is a great variety of rock types, and therefore climbing styles. One day you might be maneuvering up a chimney in the Ogwen Valley, then the next be delicately balancing on the small edges in the Slate Quarries. Routes range from single pitch to long mountain days.
If the weather isn’t at its best, there are plenty of other options outside the Park to make sure you get the most out of your course - for example, Tremadog, Holyhead Mountain and the Great Orme often get glorious sunshine if the weather is not so good in the mountains.
Accomodation Wales The YHA offers good value shared accommodation with self-catering facilities in Capel Curig and Idwal Cottage. There are many B&Bs available in Betws y Coed.
