I have a lifelong passion for walking in the mountains and truly understand the benefits it brings, not only for physical fitness, but also for mental health and wellbeing.
I have over 30 years’ experience in mountain walking around the UK, Europe, North Africa, South America and India, and have developed an in-depth knowledge of the stunning Cambrian mountains of Mid Wales and the peaks of Southern Snowdonia.
I specialise in guided walks on Cadair Idris, as well as some of the lesser known mountains in the area, away from the crowds, offering you an alternative view of the peace and tranquillity of the mountains. I can guide you in all weather conditions, day or night, easy walks or challenging unmarked routes. Your walk, your experience, your memories.
My guided walks cover the beautiful and dramatic scenery of Southern Snowdonia and the Cambrian Mountains. These areas offer wild landscapes full of diverse habitats supporting a host of flora and fauna.
Snowdonia National Park has been designated an International Dark Sky Reserve because of its low density population and lack of light pollution. There are only 12 of these reserves in the world and on a clear night you can see the Milky Way and other major constellations making this an ideal location for doing night walks.
With easy access to Plynlimon and Cadair Idris I offer a range of routes over some of the most breath-taking hills and mountains in Wales, tailored to suit your goals and experience. Whether you want an afternoon exploring the quieter peaks in the area, or push yourself with an all-day challenge taking in several summits, I can offer you a safe, fun adventure in the mountains.
