About the event
Join Ben Turner 'The Adventure Coach' as he tackles trash on Wales' most beloved mountain by hiking EVERY route on Yr Wyddfa (Snowdon)!
Ben will attempt to run all the popular paths up Yr Wyddfa in a single day, removing as much single-use pollution as he can find. The Trash Free Trails Research Team will be stationed at the summit and in Llanberis to retrieve and survey the single-use pollution found, with the aim to leave Yr Wyddfa completely 'trash free' by sunset.
Join Ben for the Miner's Path route and help us retrieve as much single-use pollution as possible.
Please note only certain routes are open to group participation. Attendees must be mountain fit and competent hill walkers - participants join at their own risk.
GUIDED HIKE GROUP: ⬆️ Miners Path and ⬇️ Pyg Track
Join our Mountain Leaders and ascend the classic Miners Path route. Meet at TFT Basecamp at Penceunant Isaf for 09:30, before the group get the bus from Llanberis up to Pen y Pas. Starting the route at 11:00am, you'll follow Ben's route up the Miner's Path to the Summit, where you'll drop any trash you've removed. You'll continue surveying on your way down the Pyg Track, returning to the Pen y Pas car park before getting the bus back to town.
To join the guided hike you MUST sign up to join this event - this enables up to stay in contact with you in the lead up in the case of last minute changes.
SELF-LED TRAIL CLEANING: Visit the TFT Basecamp at Penceunant Isaf throughout the day to grab your own trail clean kit and help leave the mountain trash free! Whether you're on an amble up the Llanberis pass or hoping to take a gentler loop around Llyn Padarn, all are welcome!
