Last weekend some of our Chevin team took a trip to Wales to hike to the summit of Snowdon, the highest mountain in Wales, at an elevation of 1,085 metres above sea level!<\/p>\n\n <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n

On Friday afternoon we set off from our UK HQ and headed west into Wales. We arrived at the old market town of Conwy, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and checked into our accommodation for the weekend, the\u00a0youth hostel YHA Conwy<\/a>, which featured picturesque views of Conwy castle and the River Conwy.<\/p>\n

We then walked down into town for dinner at a local tapas restaurant before getting some rest ahead of our big day!<\/p>\n

We set our alarms bright and early and set off from the hostel at 6:30am to reach Snowdonia before parking chaos ensured.<\/p>\n\n <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n

We set off on our hike around 8am following the Miners Track, which started with a gradual stroll along the shores of Llyn Teyrn, Llyn Llydaw and Glaslyn before ascending steeply to meet the Llanberis Path to the summit.<\/p>\n

We stopped at the top to celebrate, take in the views and enjoy our lunch before starting the descent back down the miners track. The route took us 6 and a half hours in total, and we covered over 17km!<\/p>\n\n <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n

That evening we took on another walk into Conwy town and treated ourselves to some wood fired pizzas and of course some celebratory drinks.<\/p>\n\n <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n

It was an amazing weekend walking up Snowdon. It was something I always wanted to do, and when it was suggested as a team building weekend I jumped at the chance. The way the mixture of fitness\u2019s and abilities all grouped together was a great example of what a cohesive and inclusive company we work for. It was tough getting to the top, but we all did it together and had a great couple of nights out too! Can\u2019t wait until next year!<\/h3>\n \n
