If you're getting into trail running, or just want to get an adventure booked in the diary, then this running trip across Snowdonia National Park might just be what you're looking for! Our fun team of enthusiastic and knowledgeable guides will lead you across open meadows, scrambling up rocky ridges and striding down past emerald lakes in the Welsh hills. We'll focus on sharing tips on technique like how to improve pacing on the uphill, packing for a day in the hills, how to fuel your body and gaining confidence in the mountains.
