Join Snowdon Challenge 2026

Join Worldwide Radiology for a brilliant early-summer day out in Snowdonia, with a friendly team, fresh air and a shared goal: raising funds to support practical imaging education and specialist clinical support where it is hardest to access.

​

This challenge is free to take part in. We simply ask everyone joining us to fundraise for Worldwide Radiology.

The route: Llanberis Path (Yr Wyddfa)

We will be walking up Snowdon using the Llanberis Path, often described as the most gradual route. It is still a hard, strenuous mountain walk and should not be underestimated.

 

What to expect:

​

  • Distance: around 14.5 km / 9 miles there and back

  • Ascent: roughly 950 to 975m

  • Time: usually 5.5 to 7 hours total for most walkers, including breaks

  • Difficulty: hard/strenuous, steady climbing with some steep sections and exposed mountain conditions near the top

How fit do I need to be?

You do not need to be an athlete, but you do need a good base level of fitness and to be comfortable walking for several hours on uneven ground.

​

Suggested prep:

​

  • Aim for 2 to 4 weeks of regular walking beforehand if you are not already doing longer walks

  • Build up to at least 2 to 3 hour walks, ideally with some hills or stairs

  • If you can comfortably walk 10 to 15k on mixed terrain, you are in a good place

  • Please do not join if you are currently unwell or injured

 

If you are unsure, get in touch and we will talk it through.

What you are signing up for
