Escape to an amazing off-the-grid mountain lodge on the slopes of Snowdon and enjoy hikes, scrambling, wild swimming, camp fires, BBQ and beers under the stars. Clear your mind, refresh your soul and experience the good stuff that only the outdoors can give you! Fresh air, exercise, great food, even better company, and laughs aplenty, all guaranteed on a Brave Dave Great Mountain Escape weekend!
What To Expect
We'll be based at the amazing Crashpad Lodges, over a mile from the nearest path up Snowdon and over two miles from civilisation. From here we have Snowdon as our back yard, which we will explore on a couple of excellent mountain walks where I'll take us along routes that avoid the bulk of the crowds. For anyone feeling brave, there will be the opportunity to wild swim in a remote lake, and the hikes can integrate scrambling as well.
Back at the lodge you can get freshened up in the stream's mountain water plunge pool, fire up the barbecue or chill out around the camp fire, enjoying a beer as the sun sets. We can play music and make as much noise as we want, because we really do have the valley to ourselves.
This is the perfect way to get away from life back home for a few days and escape to the solitude of the mountains. Meet new people, make new friends, breathe fresh air and have a bloody good time; all at a Brave Dave Great Escape Weekend!

Fitness and Experience
The hikes that I will lead us on are nothing extreme but they do require as reasonable level of fitness due to being up and down a mountain (obviously). We'll move at a steady speed, with plenty of stops whenever people need them. As long as you've got at least a bit of experience in walking up and down hills then you shouldn't have any issues.
There could even be a bit of scrambling! Again, nothing difficult (grade 1 only), and it'll depend on the weather and what the group would like to do.
