Walker to Scrambler

Our Walker to Scrambler course is for people who have been hill walking already and want to experience the joys of rocky ridges and scrambling terrain. It is based in the Eryri/Snowdonia National Park where there are a wealth of Grade 1 scrambles to choose from e.g. y Gribin and the north ridge of Tryfan.
