19th-20th June 2021

New for 2021, the Virtual Snowdon Climb challenges you to complete the altitude and distance of the great mountain all from the comfort of your own home. The tallest summit in England and Wales, this route will truly test your endurance and commitment.

For the virtual route, you are in complete control; you set the pace and you chose which parts of the route you want to complete. Take on the virtual climb anytime throughout June and complete 17.5KM or climb 361 flights of stairs (5000 steps) to cover the 1085 meters which makes up the great Snowdon peak!

We’ll send you a route map so you know where you’d be at each milestone, with some fun facts about Snowdonia along the way and information about our ground breaking research into new treatments for prostate cancer.
