- We've come to Wales to go Hiking and Wild Camping in Snowdonia. I love hiking in Wales as it's more challenging than hiking in the lake district or the peak district. If you love walking then this is the place for you.
Before we set up our wild camp for the night at Devil's Kitchen we decided to do a 4.4 mile hike up Y Garn, the 10th highest Mountain in Wales. The main national trust car park was full so we ended up walking 5.63 miles in total.

Here is my route on Strava / strava . When walking in snowdonia just be mindful that the car parks and laybys fill up really fast.
Actual walking time excluding stop and vlogging was 2 hours 16 minutes.
This was a fantastic route with some really steep and tricky sections. I really recommend this route.
Snow on the summit was a nice surprise! You on get that at this time of year when walking in wales.
My Day 2 video 'Hiking in Snowdonia - Glyder Fawr and Glyder Fach' will be out next week as well as my wild camp video at Devils Kitchen.
Gear Used:
Salomon Quest 3 4D GTX Hiking Boots
Osprey Talon 22 Rucksack
DHB Base Layers
Rab Nucleus Hoodie
Mountain Equipment Ibex Hiking Trousers

Thanks, Andy.
Please note the amazon link is what everyone sees and pays but I receive a miniscule finders fee when people use the link. It all goes back into backpacking gear!

Thanks, really pleased you like it 👍
Absolutely loved that video 👌 - New subscriber Looking forward to watching the rest of your videos 👍
Cheers 👍
Brilliant views, definitely worth the long slog up! xx
It really is!
Great video. One of my favourite hikes I have done :)
We really enjoyed it too!
Great stuff mate. Can't wait to get back there, hopefully the beginning of July. 🤞👍
We had such a good time (wild camp and Day 2 hike videos to come) we are definitely going back in a few months.
Stunning scenery
This is Day 1. On Day 2 we had blue sky and sunshine, simply stunning! I’ll upload what we did on day two on Tuesday 👍
I think i need to start charging for my cameo appearances. Great hike that. Superb up and down circular route. Not for the faint hearted as its a pretty steep incline and a really steep decline back into the kitchen.
You're the star! 😆
great vid andy. lovley place fella
Cheers Jason 👍
Great stuff.
Thanks! 👍
Snowdonia is first on my list after lockdown
It won't disappoint! This was Day 1, but Day 2 we had blue sky and sunshine, it was stunning.
Find it so much easier to walk that route the other way around. Going up devils kitchen feels a lot safer than going down 😊
We tend to try and make our hikes more difficult with daysacks on and easier with the big bags on 😀
Me and my wife were up there Easter weekend and woke up to a snow dump. Just so you know Y is pronounced more like er. I prefer to do that loop the other way round as I find the steps easier to get up than the y garn ascent
Apologies for the pronunciation 🙈 We went the other way on Day 2 to do Fach and Fawr and and those steps felt just as hard. Epic route either way! That vid will be out tomorrow 👍
That’s Llyn Idwal, the kitchen is at the back
Good video. Just a heads up. The Y in "Y Garn" in pronounced as "uh". 👍
A few people have pointed that out to me now 😬 🤦🏻♂️ 😂
what garmin watch you use?
I think it was my Fenix 6 back then 👍
Sorry mate dont mean to be be picky but you dropped down from devils kitchen to cwm idwal....
I didn’t know that at the time but I’ve since found that out (along with the pronunciations!). Better to get it right and get the facts out there, thanks. 😁
Great video! Just so you’re aware, it’s pronounced ‘Uh Garn’ not ‘Why Garn’ :)
Sorry! 😬 🤦🏻♂️
@@BackpackingUK You’re making the effort, all that counts!
What about e garn? Thats how I’ve been saying it lol
That is not the devils kitchen 😂😂
