A two day wild camping trip in Eryri National Park (Snowdonia), chocolate egg weekend 2023. The trip starting out great, with perfect weather and great views... but ended with me in a local hospital!
The original route was supposed to be over the entire Carneddau mountain range, from Ogwen valley to Conwy (approximately 21 miles). This is Stage 21 of the Cambrian Way. However, the final distance was a bit shorter, after having to get down off the mountains earlier than planned.
Unfortunately, it'll be at least a couple of months before I'm able to do any proper hiking again.
Distance: 16.5 miles.
Elevation gain: 4,439 feet.
Summits:
Pen yr Ole Wen, 3,209 feet.
Carnedd Dafydd, 3,425 feet.
Carnedd Llewelyn, 3,491 feet.
Foel Grach, 3,199 feet.
Carnedd Gwenllian, 3,035 feet.
Foel-fras, 3,097 feet.
Drum, 2,530 feet.
