🏔️ Snowdon or Yr Wyddfa? Let’s Talk! 🏔️

We’ve noticed something interesting when we talk about Wales’ most iconic peak - Snowdon… or should we say Yr Wyddfa?

Many Welsh speakers feel strongly about using the mountain’s traditional Welsh name, and we often get comments about this when we advertise our events. But here’s the question:

👉 Should outdoor providers like us start ONLY using the name Yr Wyddfa in our promotions?
👉 Or should we stick with Snowdon, the name most people recognise, while also including Yr Wyddfa to help people learn the traditional name?

Or maybe… you don’t really mind what it’s called as long as you get to enjoy the climb!

We’d love to hear your thoughts:
- Does the name matter to you?
- Should outdoor providers be making more of an effort to preserve the Welsh heritage?
- Or should practicality win and we use what’s most widely understood?

Drop your thoughts in the comments below ⬇️ Let’s spark some conversation about names, heritage, and the great outdoors! 🌟

🌟 Read Below To Read Dan's Story Of Why He Started Elite Adventures 🌟

"For as long as I can remember, the Royal Marines were my dream. I joined up, determined to make it, but unfortunately, I didn’t complete the training. At the time, it felt like my world had been turned upside down. With no clear path forward, I found myself working in a friend’s pub while I took time to reset and figure out my next move.

What I realised during that time was that my experiences - the wins, the struggles, and the lessons - had shaped me. I wanted to create something meaningful, but I didn’t know what. Then it hit me: the common thread in everything I’ve ever loved has been challenges - those moments when you’re physically and mentally drained, yet you find the strength to dig deep and push forward. Even better, I love being able to see and help others do the same.

From this passion, Elite Adventures was born. My goal? To create events that inspire people to break limits, achieve more than they thought possible, and enjoy the journey - just like I am.

Working with incredible charities, amazing fundraisers, and seeing people conquer events like the National 3 Peaks or Snowdon for Sunrise has been nothing short of inspiring. It’s not always glamorous - sleeping in cars, braving storms, missing a nights sleep and missing home - but it’s always rewarding.

If you spot me on an event, I’ll likely be cracking a terrible joke or smiling ear to ear, fueled by the energy of the people around me. Hiking and challenges may not be for everyone, but they’re my world, and I couldn’t be more excited for all the adventures ahead in 2025 and beyond."

Here’s to breaking barriers, raising funds for incredible causes, and creating memories that last a lifetime. 🌍🎯

Over the years, we’ve had the privilege of sharing countless breathtaking sunrises with our incredible participants. Some were picture-perfect, casting golden hues across the landscape; others were a little... soggy to put it mildly😅 (certain participants seem to bring the bad weather with them......🌧️😂). But whether it’s clear skies or drizzling rain, each sunrise has been unique, unforgettable, and truly special.

There’s something magical about standing in the stillness of the early morning, waiting for the first rays of light to peek through the mountains. While the rest of the world sleeps, you’re awake, alive, and part of something bigger—a moment that reminds you just how amazing life can be.

Each sunrise gives us:
- A Fresh Start: Watching a sunrise clears your mind and sets a positive tone for the day ahead.

- Perspective & Gratitude: It’s a reminder of the beauty in simple things and a chance to pause and reflect.

- A Boost of Energy: There’s no better motivation to kickstart your day than nature’s most incredible light show.

When was the last time you witnessed the sunrise?

When did you last watch the sun rising from the summit of a mountain?

If the answer to those questions isn't quite what you'd like it to be then we do have several opportunities to get booked onto one of our sunrise events this year. I'll post a link in the comments below for anyone interested 👍

If not then take a look at a selection of some of the different sunrises from the past couple of years. Whilst the photography isn't always the best 😅 the old saying stands true, a photo doesn't do it justice.

Season’s Greetings, Adventurers!

As the snow settles (or not - hello, unpredictable weather), and your stockings fill with goodies, we wanted to take a moment to wish you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

Our team at Elite Adventures is taking a brief holiday pause, but fear not - we’ll be back in action on December 27th, ready to fuel your wanderlust and craving for epic challenges into the New Year.

🎅 A Special Holiday Message from Us:
Whether you’re hiking through snowy trails, scaling gingerbread houses, or conquering a mountain of mince pies, remember - you’re part of a community that’s always pushing boundaries and discovering new heights (literally and figuratively).

When the festive games are played out, the mince pies are gone, and the family debates have shifted to who cheated at Monopoly (normally me), keep an eye out for our 2025 Challenge Events. From our classic three peaks to our new Lyke Wake, Freedom Trail and Coasteering, we’ve got something for everyone to enjoy and conquer!

📅 Mark Your Calendars: 2025 is going to be wild, and you’re invited. Stay tuned for the big announcements coming soon!
