Snowdon – The Mighty Watkin Path

Join Muslim Hikers for another of our Snowdon adventures, the mighty Watkin Path.

This is widely considered the most challenging and steepest route up Yr Wyddfa (Snowdon), offering a tougher test than our annual Llanberis Path hike, and some of the most stunning scenery in all of Snowdonia.

From cascading waterfalls and wooded trails to panoramic mountain views, this is a truly rewarding climb for hikers ready to take on something more ambitious. You’ll be supported throughout by qualified guides and surrounded by a welcoming community.

If you’ve done Snowdon before and want to try something new, this is for you.
