We've come Wales to go Hiking in Snowdonia and Wild Camping at the Devil's Kitchen. Hiking in Wales is fantastic and it's more difficult than hiking in the peak district or the lakes. If you love walking up mountains then this is the place for you.
After our wild camp at Devil's Kitchen we decided to do a 6.8 mile hike up Glyder Fach and then onto Glyder Fawr, the 5th and 6th highest mountains in wales. Hiking the Glyders should be on everyone's list of uk walks. We parked in the layby just up the road from the national trust car park.
Buy your Snowdonia OS maps here on Amazon Prime for £6.99 amzn.to/32oJKzk
Here is my route on Strava / strava . When walking in snowdonia just be mindful that the car parks and laybys fill up fast. You can get towed if you park on the road or path.
Actual walking time excluding stop and vlogging was 2 hours 56 minutes.
This was a great route with some very steep and very tricky sections, especially the descent from Glynder Fawr towards Tryfan. I highly recommend this route.
Snow on the summit was a nice surprise and we had a great view of Snowdon too!
Check out my Day 1 video of us taking on Y Garn, the 10th highest mountain in wales and DEFINITELY check out my wild camping video at Devil's Kitchen.
Hiking Gear Used:
Salomon Quest 3 4D GTX Hiking Boots
Revolution Race Hiking Trousers
Mountain Equipment T-Shirt
Osprey Talon 22 Rucksack
If you like hiking, backpacking and wild camping then this is the channel for you. If you want to see more hiking videos then please SUBSCIRBE. I'll be uploading more hiking vlogs in the coming weeks.
Thanks, Andy.
Please note the amazon link is what everyone sees and pays but I receive a miniscule finders fee when people use the link. It all goes back into backpacking gear!

One of my friends got me onto them. They really are hard wearing, perfect for this type of hike. I haven't looked at their tops so I'll check them out 👍

Where was your starting point and what path do you take. Just seen a video for this peak but looked so different. Your route looks great

What exact trousers were you wearing? What would you recommend?

@BackpackingUK 2 жыл бұрын

My favourite trousers are Mountain Equipment Ibex. They are a sort of thin softshell trousers but they're the most comfy, best fitting, stretchy, lightweight, best all-rounder trousers I've ever owned.

Have you written this again?!?! I know where and what the Devil’s Kitchen is! It makes a great title hence why I used it and 99.99% of people don’t care it’s 100m away!
