5-Night Southern Snowdonia Big Mountain Walks 5-Night Southern Snowdonia Big Mountain Walks Tour Style: Challenge Walks Destinations: Snowdonia & Wales Trip code: DGBGW-5 Trip Walking Grade: 6 HOLIDAY OVERVIEW Complete some of Snowdonia’s finest mountain ridges on this exciting holiday. These routes often include a bit of scrambling to add interest and finish on a pointy summit, so you know you’ve "topped out". The “Big Mountain Walks” holidays feature some absolute classics, all of which are must-do's for keen hillwalkers. And if you've done them before you know you'll never tire of this fine collection. WHAT'S INCLUDED • High quality en-suite accommodation in our country house • Full board from dinner upon arrival to breakfast on departure day • 4 days guided walking • The services of HF Holidays Walking Leaders www.hfholidays.co.uk PAGE 1 [email protected] Tel: +44(0) 20 3974 8865 HOLIDAYS HIGHLIGHTS • Discover the dramatic scenery and history of Southern Snowdonia • Tackle some of Wale's finest ridge walks • Discover the wild and rugged Rhinogs • Ascend Cadair Idris via the famous Minffordd Path • Tackle some of Snowdonia’s finest ridges • Enjoy the rocky Aran ridge and visit the highest point in Southern Snowdonia TRIP SUITABILITY Big Walks Snowdonia - The nature of these routes means that the days will be long and strenuous with considerable steep ascents and descents over rough ground, bogs and streams, and will include easy scrambling up to Grade 1. The routes also involve moving along narrow airy ridges and walking above steep slopes where a slip could have serious consequences. It is essential that you have previous experience of mountain walking in the UK over rough terrain (including scrambling) and have a good head for heights. Scrambling is the link between hill walking and rock climbing with the use of hands on the rock to assist progress. We will only be doing easy scrambling (up to Grade 1) which requires no special mountaineering skills or equipment, and which should be within the capability of any adventurous and experienced hill walker. Examples of comparable Grade 1 scrambles are Crib Goch in North Wales and Sharp Edge in the Lake District. ITINERARY Day 1: Arrival Day You're welcome to check in from 4pm onwards. Enjoy a complimentary Afternoon Tea on arrival. Day 2: Nantlle Possibly the most exciting ridge-walk in Snowdonia, we set off from the shores of Llyn Cwm Dulyn to ascend our first top, Mynydd Graig Goch. This is quickly followed by Carnedd-Goch and then Craig Cwm Silyn before we arrive at the narrow part of the ridge which gives some breath-taking views. The summit of Mynydd Tal-y- mignedd is adorned with an obelisk and the narrow,grassy ridge continues via Trun y Ddysgl and Mynedd Drws-y-coed to end abruptly at Y Garn. From here it’s a steep descent to finish the walk at Rhyd-Ddu. Distance: 8 miles (13kms) Ascent: 3,000 feet (920m) Day 3: Cader Idris We take the classic Minffordd Path to the summit of Cader Idris as it gives great views of Llyn Cau during the ascent. After enjoying views from the rocky summit, we follow the ridge East to visit the tops of Mynydd Moel and then Gau Graig before descending down a steep, grassy slope. Our route back to Dolserau includes the famous Torrent Walk, much favoured by Victorian tourists to the area. Distance: 9 miles (14.5km) Ascent: 3200 feet (970m) Day 4: Rhinogs The Rhinogs are probably the most remote and least-visited mountains in Wales and are characterised by heather and rock and very little grass. Our route starts at Graigddu-isaf and follows forest tracks to the summit www.hfholidays.co.uk PAGE 2 [email protected] Tel: +44(0) 20 3974 8865 of the pass of Drws-Ardudwy. Here we take a very steep path through heather to reach the rocky summit of Rhinog Fach. Then it’s down to Llyn Hywel and back to the pass where we make a rough ascent to the summit of Rhinog Fawr. A challenging and exhilarating day to finish the week. Distance: 8 miles (13km) Ascent: 3,000 feet (920m) Day 5: Arans This is an excellent high-level walk that starts at the remote Bwlch y Groes or “the Pass of the Cross”. We approach the Aran ridge from the East which gives us the best view of these craggy summits. Aran Benllyn is the first top followed by Aran Fawddwy, the highest point on the ridge at just under 3,000 feet, then Glasgwm before we descend to the end of the walk at Bwlch Oerddrws. Distance: 12 miles (19km) Ascent: 2.800 feet (860m) Day 6: Departure Day Enjoy a leisurely breakfast before making your way home. ACCOMMODATION Dolserau Hall Walkers in the know head to southern Snowdonia to uncover one of Wales’ best-kept secrets. Stood in the heart of the Snowdonia National Park, just a couple of miles from the attractive market town of Dolgellau, Dolserau Hall makes a superb base for getting off the beaten path. The tranquillity of the location wraps around you. A smart country house with breathtaking views from every room, attractive gardens and vistas that stretch across the valley to the summit of Cadair Idris, you’re surrounded by rural inspiration. Depending on what mood strikes, explore the Rhinogs, take on a classic ridge walk with great views, set foot on the Mawddach Trail or follow the coast to Harlech, where the eponymous medieval castle stands on a wonderful position overlooking the sweeping sands of Cardigan Bay. Croeso I Cymru, as they say around here.

However, we will still give guests space e.g. we will seat 6 people at a table where pre-pandemic we may have seated 8. We will ensure our public rooms are well ventilated by opening doors and windows wherever possible. If you have any concerns about distancing, please speak to the House Manager.

There will be one other evening of entertainment at the start of the week, which will vary depending on the country house that you are staying at. Our Walk Leaders will also be on hand in the bar or lounge for individual or small group walks talks briefings, which allow guests to talk through the following day’s walk options and ask any questions.

  • The Monthly Newsletter of the Gwydyr Mountain Club
    THE GWYDYRNo33(DEC/Jan 2012/13) THE MONTHLY NEWSLETTER OF THE GWYDYR MOUNTAIN CLUB Hello all, happy new year and hope everyone had a good Christmas Think it’s best to start with a new year’s message from Andy Chapman :- Happy new year Just come back from my 4th ascent of Aconcagua, this time 8 out of 11 summited on summit day last Sunday. Not too bad for this mountain very windy at base camp. Many tents destroyed. One client had major difficulties in descent, something of a epic 15 hrs day for me helping her, she has also met Margaret at some point in the Lake District. Thankfully no frost bite or altitude sickness at all, also its still growing by 2 cm a year, one day it could be higher than Everest. Flying home via Brazil tomorrow. Andrew Also for those who haven’t checked their emails too closely over the Christmas period Dave Gray has made a couple of alterations to his January walks :- Dear All DAY TRIPS IN JANUARY 2013 – SATURDAYS 4 and 19: CHANGES TO PLAN I hope everyone has had a great Christmas but we have had a lot of rain and those people who have been out will have found the ground very saturated. And we have more rain forecast. For that reason I propose to change the venues for my two Saturday walks in January 2013, in the hopes of not having people sprawling in mud. I hope everyone will feel this is sensible rather than just sticking blindly to plan A! 1.

  • Hill Walking & Mountaineering
    Hill Walking & Mountaineering in Snowdonia Introduction The craggy heights of Snowdonia are justly regarded as the finest mountain range south of the Scottish Highlands. There is a different appeal to Snowdonia than, within the picturesque hills of, say, Cumbria, where cosy woodland seems to nestle in every valley and each hillside seems neatly manicured. Snowdonia’s hillsides are often rock strewn with deep rugged cwms biting into the flank of virtually every mountainside, sometimes converging from two directions to form soaring ridges which lead to lofty peaks. The proximity of the sea ensures that a fine day affords wonderful views, equally divided between the ever- changing seas and the serried ranks of mountains fading away into the distance. Eryri is the correct Welsh version of the area the English call Snowdonia; Yr Wyddfa is similarly the correct name for the summit of Snowdon, although Snowdon is often used to demarcate the whole massif around the summit. The mountains of Snowdonia stretch nearly fifty miles from the northern heights of the Carneddau, looming darkly over Conwy Bay, to the southern fringes of the Cadair Idris massif, overlooking the tranquil estuary of the Afon Dyfi and Cardigan Bay. From the western end of the Nantlle Ridge to the eastern borders of the Aran range is around twenty- five miles. Within this area lie nine distinct mountain groups containing a wealth of mountain walking possibilities, while just outside the National Park, the Rivals sit astride the Lleyn Peninsula and the Berwyns roll upwards to the east of Bala. The traditional bases of Llanberis, Bethesda, Capel Curig, Betws y Coed and Beddgelert serve the northern hills and in the south Barmouth, Dinas Mawddwy, Dolgellau, Tywyn, Machynlleth and Bala provide good locations for accessing the mountains.

Report and pictures inside. These excellent pictures were taken by Andy Clark on the Summerhouse Stroll, on February 2. Peter Jull kindly led the walk instead of Graham Smith, who had been called away to London and was unable to make it. Some of the pictures show Summerhouse Hill, or the view from it. One of the other pictures shows Saltwood Castle. The walk was hilly - and very wet underfoot! 2 IMPORTANT NOTICE CONCERNING CORONAVIRUS THE statement below was issued by the LDWA’s National Executive Committee on Monday March 16, in response to guide- lines issued by the Government over the coronavirus crisis. As it says, ALL LDWA walks – challenge and social – have been cancelled. The NEC statement came just as this newsletter was in the final stages of being put together, so the editor has had to make some hasty re-jigs to some of the stories – including those relating to the Y 100 Sir Fynwy, which has been cancelled (as this newsletter went to press, members of the NEC were meeting to make a decision on next year’s Hundred – there will be more about this in the August Strider). The LDWA has continued to monitor Her Majesty's Government advice in relation to the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic.
