Welsh Three Peaks Challenge
The Welsh Three Peaks Challenge covers the three summits Snowdon, Cadair Idris and Pen y Fan, located in North, Mid and South Wales. The route is typically completed in three stages and can be done in less than 24 hours.
The total walking distance is 17 miles (27.4 km) with 2,334 m (7,657 ft) of ascent. The route involves more ascent than the Yorkshire Three Peaks while covering a shorter walking distance.
Participants can join organised open events or private challenges that provide transport, mountain leaders and food and drink. The guided Welsh Three Peaks option is listed at £360 per person. It is also possible to plan and complete the challenge independently using available routes, maps, parking and timing guidance. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
