The Welsh 3 Peaks is an awesome 24 hours of adventure as you take on the three highest peaks in Wales; Y Wyddfa (Snowdon) (1,085m), Cadair Idris (893m) and Pen-Y-Fan (886m), a total of 17.4 miles of walking and 2864m of ascent.  That’s the equivalent height of 9 Eiffel Towers or 651 double decker buses stacked on top of each other.

A unique opportunity to take in spectacular, breath-taking mountain views, challenge yourself, make memories to last a lifetime and accomplish something truly extraordinary.  Trekking will be tough with limited time for each peak; however, the sense of achievement when you summit the final peak will be unbeatable.

What’s Included: Qualified Walk Leaders, Transport from Tredegar to North Wales and duration of challenge, kit list, Hospice T-shirt, Buff, spectacular views and memories to treasure.
