Matterhorn of Wales Hiking Trip

Sat, 4 Oct 2025
08:00 - 10:00

On Saturday (4th of October) we’re going on our first hike of the year! We will be heading to north wales to climb Cnicht, a small (689m) pyramid shaped mountain nicknamed the Matterhorn of Wales. The route itself is just over 8km long with 550m of ascent and should take us roughly 4.5 hours. At the end we’ll head over to Plas y Brenin (the national outdoor centre) for a quick pint before driving back to Liverpool... get innn :0
