Boulder your way in Eryri

Boulder Adventures, Llanberis

Boulder Adventures operates from the Bryn Du Mountain Centre and the Padarn Watersports Centre, and journeys out to graded climbing spots in and around Eryri (Snowdonia) for adrenaline-fuelled fun. How about a 100ft abseil or rock climbing around Betws y Coed? Sounds pretty fun to us.

Llanberis climbing and high-ropes

Next to the Slate Museum in Llanberis you'll find Ropeworks, a high ropes and all-round activity centre. Go on an indoor taster climbing session or let them lead you on a mountain route in the great outdoors that's tailored to your ability and experience.  Afterwards, you could take to the high ropes course and giant swing, if you've still got energy to burn.
