“A lovely group of mountain leaders...”
Anne Lotter - May 2019
“Thanks so much for sending us such a lovely group of Mountain Leaders for the climb up Snowdon. I had many positive comments from parents about how great they were which is fantastic! We had a superb day, everyone wants to sign up to Scafell next year, and so far we have raised £1,750 or 75% of our target of £2,000 which is just wonderful.”
“A great climb in lovely weather...”
Achla Roche - May 2019
“Our Mountain Leader, Anthony, was as great guide and it was very nice of Ross to drive us to our starting point. I had a great climb in lovely weather and got to see the view from the summit. It may have been a bit slower than my fellow walkers would have liked as I’m not as I don’t walk as fast as them nor am I as fit. This has provided me with better memories of Snowdon as the previous time I climbed, on 3rd September 2017, it was in the pouring rain...”
“We'd love to do it again...”
Annie Smith - June 2018
“Real mix of experience and comfort zones across our team and we’ve had feedback from everybody about how fantastic all the leaders were. Whether it was experienced walkers impressed by their knowledge and skills, or quite daunted, unsure walkers feeling comforted and ended up being happily surprised at how much fun they had – they were all raving about how great the day was...”
“You total star!”
Colette Johnston - May 2018
“Thanks loads for such an awesome, awesome day AND the incredible pics you took for me on the Snowdon Horseshoe. My future yoga website shall definitely be using some of them. If you ever plan a further guided trip up to the Isle of Skye - you have a definite customer here...”
“Small children up big mountains...”
Sharon Reid - May 2018
“Thanks so, so much for yesterday. Everyone was so amazing and made it a very special day for all the participants. Your guides were, once again, so helpful and friendly and I had so many comments about how wonderful they were. Kate, you’ve inspired Marie to keep going with this crazy idea of taking small children up big mountains and to try another one next year!”
“It was beyond perfect...”
Hayley Browning - May 2018
“Honestly, I couldn't have wished for a better day. Thanks to all of your fab organisation and perfect management on the day, and truly wonderful guides to accompany us up the mountain, the event was everything I wanted it to be and more. It really was a once in a lifetime experience to have all 100 of my family and friends up a mountain, and you made that experience absolutely perfect. I can't keep the smile off my face...”
“I felt so safe with you guiding us”
Helena Rebello - April 2018

“Banana and Ribena did the trick...”
Carol Swash - August 2017

“Jason and Claire were fantastic. It was so good to know they were there for guidance and support. It meant we could relax and enjoy the experience, the views and everyone's company. They were professional, friendly, supportive, patient and most of all fun to be around.”
“Couldn't have done it without you...”
Sharon Reid - June 2017
“Thanks so much for everything, to say we couldn’t have done it without you is the understatement of the year! I had so much lovely feedback on all the guides who walked with everyone and kept them going, on the overall organisation and for Ross and how he handled the whole day.”
“Such an achievement to complete Crib Goch...”

“The icing on the cake...”
John and Grandchildren – July 2016
“Miners Track and Llanberis Path: it couldn’t have been better! Craig was outstanding – knowledgeable, organised, skilful and sensitive. This old man who hadn’t been up Snowdon for 17 years was enabled to cope, and the adventurous grandson given sufficient lease to enjoy but not endanger himself! And the conversations and verbal games were the icing on the cake. Kate, your guidance and support beforehand were invaluable – so glad we were able to meet. THANK YOU!”
“You kick a*s on that mountain...”
Alex Thomas - June 2016
“Thank you very much for everything you guys did for me on Tuesday and on the lead up to the 6 Ways up Snowdon event. I couldn't have wished for a better team!! You guys were awesome and I couldn't have done it without any of you! Thank you, thank you, thank you and continue to kick ass on that mountain!”

“Cold and frosty...”
Sundeep and Friends - September 2015
“We had the most amazing weekend climbing Snowdon. It is agreed that the weather was not on our side but we all prepped well with waterproofs and layers and most important of all, good spirit!”
“The whole day was such a brilliant experience...”
Rachel Morgan - April 2015
“Amazing organised climb on Easter Sunday 2015 with the brilliant Ross. The whole day was such a brilliant experience and would recommend joining a RAW/Climb Snowdon organised climb to anyway who wants to have a safe walk and learn about the mountains and their history. Thank you Ross, Kate and the rest of the RAW team.”
“Many thanks guys, you're inspirational...”
Jennie Crean - May 2014
“Climb Snowdon on May 11th 2014 was the biggest challenge any of the group walking for The Ben Crean Trust had ever undertaken. Torrential rain and driving winds made the task ahead seem impossible. We hadn’t reckoned on the professionalism, organisational skills and motivational leaders from RAW who made it possible. At the end of the gruelling day everyone was safe, well and congratulating themselves on a lifetimes achievement and even ventured outside again for a photo (mercifully, the rain had stopped).”
“Chasing the clouds up the mountain...”
Dee Whittle - May 2014
“Thanks so much for all your help on our trip up Snowdon. We had a great day and were so lucky with the weather. It was almost like we were chasing the clouds up the mountain ahead of us. The leaders were great, very engaging and there was a really nice balance of learning and fun in there. It was great to hear the legends and myths and having a geologist was a real treat. It was perfect.”
“One of the most incredible things I've ever done...”
Gemma Braybrook - April 2014
“The most amazing experience! Kate, we cannot thank you enough for your help, guidance and support whilst arranging our climb and on the day itself! For someone who had never attempted such a physical challenge you put all of my fears to bed and helped me achieve one of the most incredible things I have ever done!”
“The weather was awful, but it didn't dampen our spirits!”
Lindsey Teear - September 2013
“We all had the most amazing time on Saturday! The weather was awful but it didn’t dampen our spirits! Marianne was fab, such a lovely person and we would all like to say a big big thank you to her! She was invaluable and I don’t think we would of got to the summit without her in such terrible conditions! She made us all feel safe all the way up! Thank you all so much for your help and guidance over the last few months!”
“It was a joy to work with you...”
Richard Lester - July 2013
“The students had a great day and really enjoyed the challenge of the climb. Craig and Anthony had a wonderful manner with the students and a lot was learned in terms of navigation and the environment they were in. Please pass on my thanks again to the two of them. A huge thank you also for your support, attention and excellent level of communication. It was a joy to work with you.”
“How fortunate we were to have such a great guide...”
Mary Walker - May 2015
“When telling people about the lovely mountain and the perfect conditions, in the next breath I said how fortunate we were to have such a great guide, Kate: such a good decision to book you! Thanks again for taking us on your mountain.”
“Challening, but highly recommended...”
Rimesh Patel - May 2013
“With a tremendous amount of local knowledge, Ross was able to switch-up the walk making it extremely challenging which ensured I got most out of it. Ross was able to suggest good view points, local stories and provided welcome suggestions on how to adapt to changing weather as we walked on Snowdon. Strongly recommended and will approach RAW for all future outdoor activities.”
“Such a brilliant and memorable day for us...”
Amelia Whiteman - February 2013
“I just wanted to say a huge thank you for organising such a brilliant and memorable day for us on Friday. Climbing Snowdon together was very special...especially as it was challenging in the snow and ice, which made reaching the summit even more of an achievement! It was great to experience crampons and ice axes for our first times. Paul was fantastic, everything was fabulous! Jim and Eryl were lovely at the Plas Coch Guest House, the ale and food was delicious across at The Heights. All in all, it was an incredible couple of days. Thank you for your advice and organising it all.”
