Trek Yr Wyddfa (Snowdon)

To register for Trek Snowdon, you will need to pay a £40 registration fee upfront and commit to raising £250 in sponsorship. Morrisons foundation will match fund up to £1000 per colleague for their fundraising – helping to raise even more for seriously ill children and their families.

Charity Challenge describe Trek Snowdon as challenging. Participants can expect to be trekking for around 7-8 hours, covering 15km of mountainous terrain in a single day. They recommend beginning training 2-4 months before the challenge, and participants will need a moderate to good level of fitness.

You will be provided with a packed lunch, snacks and ability to fill up your water bottle. We would recommend bringing a minimum 2l water bottle and extra snacks to keep you fuelled for the challenge.

You will need walking boots (trainers are not suitable), waterproof/windproof jacket and trousers as well as a technical/wicking t-shirt. The full kit list can be found on the Charity Challenge site. 

Precise timings and a meeting location will be sent in your final details document 1 month before the challenge. Charity Challenge anticipate the trek commencing at approximately 9am with a safety briefing beforehand. Walking times can vary, but you should expect the trek to take around 7-8 hours to complete.
