Guided Grade One Scrambling in Snowdonia.
Join us for two days of guiding on the best grade one scrambles in Snowdonia with Rob Johnson WMCI
Two days of guided grade 1 scrambling in Snowdonia. We head out on the best scrambles that Snowdonia has to offer to tick off some of the classic ridges and gullies.
Price: £200 per person
Ratio: 1:4
Length: 2 days
Who is the course suitable for?
These two days are aimed at people who have done some grade 1 scrambling before and now want to tick off some more of the classic Snowdonia scrambles at grade 1. We have designed the course after feedback from people who have enjoyed our intro to scrambling course and now want to come back for more. This is ideal for people who have learnt the skills and now just want to maximise their time by having us choose and guide the best routes for the weather on the day.
