Wild Camping Snowdonia’s Last Remaining Wilderness

In this video we wild camp in what many people consider to be Snowdonia’s last remaining wilderness, the rough and secluded Rhinog mountain range. The landscape, which is favourably compared with the Scottish highlands certainly lived up to its reputation, with fairly discreet trails and slow going boulder scrambles in parts. The aim of the camp was to tackle and camp atop Rhinog Fach, commonly know as the king of the Rhinogs for it particularly rocky appearance and dominating butress. Our route took us through the beautifully secluded Bwlch Drws Ardudwy, which has been carved via glacial forces so many year ago. We then tackled the ascent work of the route, before finally reaching outfall of LLyn Hywel, which rested carefree imitating glass. After lunch came final climb and with it our biggest challenge of the day, a slow going boulder field to navigate, just as the winter sun characteristically looked to retire early. We raced against the fading light and and impending clag to set up camp. We also take a look at the new X Mid Pro 1, a very popular ultralight tent. The day finished with a curry night consisting of chicken and prawn tikka masala, naan breads, pilau rice along with popadoms and mango chutney. We hope you enjoy the video.
