It’s June 20th here in Trawsfynydd, and I’ve just stepped out onto the gravel at Rhiw Goch Inn to find the sun actually doing its job. In North Wales, we call this "rare weather," and it’s usually the cue for every hiker in a 100-mile radius to start packing...

It’s June in Snowdonia (or Eryri, as we locals call it), and if you’ve been scrolling through Reddit lately, you’ve probably seen the same question pop up a hundred times: "Is it worth camping in North Wales in June, or should I just book a lodge?" Look,...

Morning, folks. Peter Dive here, coming to you from the most comfortable spot in Bronaber. I’m currently sat with a steaming mug of coffee, watching the mist burn off the Rhinogydd mountains from the window of the Rhiw Goch Inn. It’s Wednesday, June 17, 2026, and if...

There’s something about a North Wales sunset that just hits differently. Maybe it’s the way the light bounces off the peaks of the Rhinogydd mountains, or how the Irish Sea turns into a sheet of liquid gold. Whatever it is, I’ve spent more than my fair share of...

Alright, folks, Peter Dive here. If you’re reading this on Tuesday, the 16th of June, you’ll know that the Welsh summer has finally decided to show its face. It’s that glorious time of year in Snowdonia where the days are long, the grass is vibrant green, and I spend...

Alright, pull up a chair. If you’re anything like me, after a day spent conquering the trails of Snowdonia (or, let’s be honest, just wandering around trying to find where you parked the car near Coed y Brenin), there is only one thing on the mind: a cold pint and a...
