Welcome to Snowdonia Mountain Guides we have lived and breathed rock climbing and mountaineering in Snowdonia for the last twenty-five years. It is the last thing we think about at night and the first thing that crosses our minds when we wake up. We have lived what can only be described as a dream lifestyle where the mountains and adventure are right on our doorstep. In doing so have come to know mountains and cliffs of North Wales intimately. What we offer isn’t just a course in how to climb, navigate or ascend a mountain, instead we offer something more. An adventure into the unknown.
An experience that we hope will help define you and your future enjoyment of the mountains of Wales and beyond. We handpick routes to take you to your mental and physical limits under the watchful eye of our coaches and guides. In the process, we will give you one of the most exhilarating experiences of your life. We don’t sell holidays, we sell mountain adventures.

This Picos De Europa Rock Climbing Holiday is a great way to experience the best trad and sport climbing in this magical region of Northern Spain. With both roadside sport and mountain trad climbing the area really is a climbing nirvana.

So I have headed down from Northern Spain and I am back in the Costa Blanca soaking up the sun and climbing some of the great sport climbs in the area. It is alway nice to avoid a bit of the welsh/english winter and escape for some winter hot rock climbing. Sadly this year I have to head back for christmas but I am back working here in the new year. If you’d like to book onto a course then you can do through either here or Sunnier Climbs.
Hopefully some of the images might help you get excited for some of our hot rock climbing and coaching holidays here.

So incredibly lucky for a beautiful day out on the mountain with Mark. He was wonderfully accommodating and went above and beyond to ensure that I had the best day climbing possible. We were able to do a couple of classic routes and he was constantly sharing his local knowledge and climbing expertise. His familiarity with nearly every person we passed on the mountain showed his remarkable depth of commitment to the climbing community in Wales. I couldn't have asked for a better guide.
Well oganised and lovely people - our group of 34 had a fabulous time exploring Snowdon for our fight against malaria!
Thank you to Mark and the team!
