  • We’ll usually start the day at Caban café, perfectly placed between the Ogwen Valley and the Llanberis Pass. After a quick coffee and a chat about your experience and goals for the day, we’ll head out to make the most of the incredible scrambling North Wales has to offer—all within a short drive.
