Snowdon by Night!

New for 2026!

#teamqueenscourt is taking on Snowdon at Night!

Trekking Yr Wyddfa (1,085m) during the daytime is already a fantastic challenge, but by using torches to light our way with the moon as our backdrop, summiting at night brings a new sense of achievement to an already recognised charity trek!

If the weather is feeling kind, we’ll take in a glorious sunrise across Eryri National Park as we descend, before tucking in to a delicious celebration breakfast at the end of our adventure.
