We Were Not Alone... Cadair Idris Wild Camp & Hike - Snowdonia, UK

On this weeks outdoors adventure we went wild camping to Cadair Idris in Snowdonia and stayed next to Llyn Cau for the night. I cooked up a fillet steak and chips(!) and enjoyed some first rate ales.
We had some neighbours which pitched incredibly close to us despite masses of other great spots around. But we didn't let it hold us back and partied until 11:30.
Before the rest of the world woke up we were climbing up Craig Cau and then onwards towards Penygadair (893m). We hiked the whole length of the ridge which took around three and a half hours to complete and get back to the car park.
It was a really tough walk, the terrain is incredibly steep around this area but it's definitely worthwhile!

Top of the world...for sure! Views that many spend a lot of money to see...such a great trek! Such a magnificent and magical place! Indeed, the agreement is common...many individuals make their living doing nothing but these types of review videos...not my cup of tea...but I'm not an influencer and haven't been asked myself either...lol Such a fantastic adventure! Thoroughly enjoyed your explore...take great care now and hope you are having a wonderful week! Bruce and Otis

Not another spewy haha brilliant boys..

[mooseyrambling]

Cracking place, have spent many a happy weekend up there with my son. But your right a proper lung buster, but worth it. I've always been lucky and not had any hassel with squatter's. An excellent choice of venue, keep an eye open for the low level fighters too. Another good vid bud keep them coming.

[blackmountainadventures]

Brilliant film again boys 👏 Absolutely epic views ❤️

[BulldogBadger]

I love Cadair Idris, its a hell of a slog but totally worth it 🤘🍻

Good evening Adam, sorry we missed the premiere, Chris Pratt just pipped you you to prime time viewing! Well played Druff for powering on, beauty of a mountain and what a place indeed!
Interesting to hear about the product, pleased you didn't sign those T's n C's good moral compass Adam! ♥️🧭♥️ you cant please everyone right, a bit of constructive criticism never hurt anyone surely.
How did you guys get on with the parking, did you use the main CP or an alternate?
Gotta love Snowdonia, rain or shine!
Greay video Adam, thanks for this, Ceri and Kat 👍☕♥️⛰🏕

[WhenNaturePauls]

Really enjoyed this video, such a beautiful hike!
I've been disappointed a few times when you think you have a place to yourself and someone rocks up. Sometimes it can't be helped I suppose, but if it was me turning up, I would definitely try to stay out of view or introduce myself to break the ice.
Cracking video anyway!
Take care, Paul.

Beautiful place Adam, one of my favourites. The spot that you said was sheer is the shortcut up to the saddle - it's advised to only ascend this path and not to go down it, I hadn't heard before I went and it was a bit hairy going down it.
You should've tied those guy's door zips together in the night 🤣
