Summit & Soul: Eryri – A weekend of mountains, mindfulness and connection

Start the new year surrounded by mountains, fresh air and community at Summit & Soul: Eryri , our first ever Muslim Hikers residential in Snowdonia National Park.

Across three days at the world-renowned Plas y Brenin National Outdoor Centre, this winter weekend brings together a mountain hike, mindful moments, shared meals, and outdoor activities designed to refresh your energy and reconnect you with nature.

With a mountain on our doorstep, expert instructors on site, and a warm, community-focused environment, it’s the perfect way to begin the year on higher ground.

DATE: 9 – 11 January 2026

LOCATION: Plas Y Brenin, Snowdonia National Park

This isn’t a formal spiritual retreat, but as always with Muslim Hikers, we pray together at prayer times and share gentle, faith-inspired reminders throughout the weekend.
The focus is community, reflection and starting the year with purpose.

All are welcome regardless of religious background or ability. Whether you’re a seasoned mountaineer or a first time walker, we invite you to join us for this unique experience in the Snowdonia National Park.
