Experience a once-in-a-lifetime adventure and see the Welsh skyline illuminated by moonlight on this breathtaking Snowdon at Night Trek. Guided by your Global Adventure Challenges team, you’ll climb one of the UK’s highest peaks under the stars - all while raising vital funds for Royal Voluntary Service to support people and communities in need across Britain.

Your journey begins at the foot of the Llanberis Path, one of the most scenic and gradual routes up Snowdon. As you trek 9.5 miles through the stillness of the night, you’ll pass an 18th-century teahouse and follow the historic railway line towards the summit. Reach the Snowdon cairn just in time for sunrise, where you’ll watch the first light spill across the stunning Welsh landscape — an unforgettable reward for your efforts.

After a 2–3 hour descent, celebrate your incredible achievement knowing your challenge has helped make a difference for those who need it most.

What your fundraising could achieve

£250

Could help 10 people feel safe and supported returning home from hospital, with a friendly volunteer helping them settle back into familiar surroundings.

£350

Could help provide regular wellbeing and support calls, offering friendship, reassurance and a listening ear to people experiencing loneliness.

£550

Could help provide resources, equipment and refreshments for community centre sessions that bring local people together throughout the year.

Many of the people who come here don’t really have anywhere else to go.
