2027 OPEN GROUP DATES Monday 17 to Wednesday 19 May Thursday 10 to Saturday 12 June Friday 9 to Sunday 11 July Friday 13 to Sunday 15 August Thursday 30 September to Saturday 2 October £350 per person £100 deposit to secure your place Balance due 12 weeks before the event Maximum 6 clients The Welsh 3000s in Three Days is a guided attempt to complete all 15 Welsh 3000ft summits across three substantial mountain days. It gives the route more breathing room than the 24-hour challenge, but it is not the easy version. Expect long days, rough ground, exposed Grade 1 scrambling, technical terrain through the Glyderau, big climbs and cumulative fatigue across the Yr Wyddfa massif, Glyderau and Carneddau. Most days involve around 7 to 10 hours on the mountain. You do not need to be exceptionally fast, but you do need good hill fitness, recent mountain experience and the ability to move steadily for three consecutive days. The route and order of the ranges may be adapted around the weather. Crib Goch, Tryfan and other technical sections will only be used where conditions, group ability and safety make them appropriate. WHY MOUNTAIN CRAFT? This is mainly Jacob-led, with a maximum group size of six. The value of being guided is not simply following the route. It is the pacing, judgement, weather decisions, route choices and daily logistics that give the team the best realistic chance of completing all 15 summits safely. WHO IT’S FOR People who want the complete Welsh 3000s journey without the continuous 24-hour pressure. People preparing for bigger mountain challenges. Strong hillwalkers who are comfortable with rough descents, hands-on terrain and exposed scrambling.
