North Wales - Weekend

Snowdon Ranger (YHA)

We are going to North Wales for an amazing weekend at the end of February. We will be staying in the YHA Snowdon Ranger and have exclusive access. 

There will be the opportunity for sport and trad climbing in the Llanberis slate quarries, where people will be able to make the step from leading indoors to outdoors. 

Due to the numbers on this trip it is crucial that you can CONFIDENTLY top-rope and top-rope belay. There will be an intermediate session held on the Wednesday before the trip (23rd February) that will enable you to consolidate these skills. 

We will be leaving on Friday 25th February and returning to Lancaster on 27th February 2022. 

The price of your ticket covers cost of transport, accomodation and a weekend of climbing.

 

If you have a single rope (ideally of at least 50m) and your sport gear please message the gear secs and bring this with you.

 

We will send information on leaving times etc closer to the day, so please make sure you check your uni e-mail! The e-mail might be sent to your spam folder. 

Make sure you read the kit list so that you can bring everything you need. If you lack something please let us know and we might be able to lend you something
