Ogwen | Yr Helgi Du

About this event

Set in the dramatic landscapes of Snowdonia, this July trail race from Capel Curig takes runners into the heart of Welsh mountain country. Two routes explore the rugged terrain around Yr Helgi Du: a 24-kilometre course with 1,154 metres of climbing for those ready to tackle serious mountain ground, and a 40-kilometre option with 2,394 metres of elevation for experienced runners seeking a full day in the hills. The courses wind through classic Snowdonian terrain — rocky ridges, grassy slopes, and mountain passes — with views stretching across the Ogwen Valley. This is genuine mountain running that demands solid navigation skills and confidence on technical ground.
