Black Diamond Yr Wyddfa | Snowdon24 2024

Yr Wyddfa, or Snowdon in English, is the highest mountain in Eryri (Snowdonia), and also the whole of England and Wales. It peaks at an impressive 1,085 m (3,560 feet).

Starting and finishing at the foot of this iconic mountain, you will be challenged as an individual, or part of a team, to ascend and descend Snowdon as many times as possible in 24 hours.

Being UTMB Indexed, this is also a great qualifying or preparation race for UTMB Mont Blanc. The individual challenges mean that there is a 50k, 100k and 100m mile UTMB indexed challenge.

Categories for solo runners, pair relay and team (up to 5) relay. Pair and team entries receive one timing chip, meaning only one person will be running at one time.
