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.

Had a great time on a 5 day sport to trad course that Mark tailored to my needs. Mark was helpful and professional throughout and went the extra mile. His climbing knowledge and skills were unrivalled as was his ability to pass his knowledge on.
I spent two days in May scrambling with Mark as preparation for a climbing trip to the Alps. Mark's professionalism was obvious from the start and inspired confidence. I had a fantastic two days and would have no hesitation in recommending Mark and SMG.
