 I'm starting to get into semi rock climbing now. Hi, I'm Lavi and this is Oli. Over the past four years, we have been on some epic adventures around the world. Now, after converting an old van into our new home on wheels, we are ready to hit the road and explore the wonders of Europe. The subscribe button to follow our journey and let the adventure begin. Good morning, everyone. Welcome to our odyssey. So today, this morning, we are in Snowdonia National Park in Wales. In sunny Wales. And it is a beautiful day in the park. Absolutely spectacular. The perfect day to climb a mountain. So today, we are going to tackle the highest peak in Wales, the highest peak outside of Scotland. It's called Snowdon. It is 1,085 meters high or 3,560 feet. So yesterday, we were having a little look at all the different ways you can go up and there's like six major ways that you can get at this mountain. We were having a little browse through each one, reading what they're about. Oh, that looks nice. And then we saw this one called the Watkins track and it said, this is the most challenging of all, but it has the greatest reward. And we were like, yes, that sounds like the right thing for us. So literally, we're starting pretty much at sea level here, which means we have to pretty much climb the whole 1,085 meters all the way to the top and come all the way back down back to the car. And this before it gets too dark. We parked up the van in this lay by here and we're about one kilometer from the start of the track. We just had breakfast. We picked up all our stuff and we're ready to walk the road. As well, it's just nine o'clock, so we are really good on time. So it's supposed to take us about six or seven hours to get up and down this thing, so we better get started. So let the adventure begin. Oh yes, this is it. This is the start of the track, the Watkins path or whatever that says. Liverbrew. So tackling the most difficult path up Mount Snowden, let's go. OK, starting quite easy in the nice forest, shaded from the sun. Nice and cool, very refreshing. Yeah, and not that steep so far. It's quite nice and easy. Quite nice and easy. You've got some nice steps here. So so far, the Watkins track is all right. I mean, this is more elevation than you have to climb on the last day of Everest summit. How about that? They only have to do about six or seven hundred meters on their last day. That means we are ready for Everest. If we get to the top and back down, then we'll put it in the calendar. Well, we just found out that the Watkins path was Britain's first designated footpath created by Sir Edward Watkins and officially opened by Prime Minister William Gladstone in 1892. That's quite a long time ago. So I can imagine many a foot has walked up this trail. So that's really cool. We are currently here. And we're going all the way like this to the top of Mount Snowden. There you go. Rock and roll. So we are just maybe one K in and we have to stop all the time because it's so beautiful and look at this view. So you can see a waterfall just over there and we talked to some people and they getting their swimsuits ready and everything. And they just want to slide down and have like a nice day in the boots. And we are thinking, oh, that sounds great. But we have to wait until we're coming down to do that. I think we can't just do it now. How can we? No, we have to get to the top, come back down and then we can go for a swim, I think. But it's already epic. Now we've come out of the forest and now we're just into the open hills. So yeah, just have a look here. You can see a million bluebirds. I mean, it's just epic. It's so nice. OK, we are about one hour into the hike now and we're starting to get serious ahead. See the track. I can't see it. I don't know. Everything just goes up in front of us. Exactly. Oh, man. I thought that's going to get better and better as we get higher up. Hell of a staircase. It's starting to get steeper. I think we can see the summit, I think. I think so too. Look, I can see some very, very tiny people up there. For that bit there. So actually, we think that might be the summit. But we're still very far away. They look like ants. Can you see them? I thought that this one was the peak. But actually, now we have revised that and we now think because you can sort of see a trail going up to the top there. And I can see some people up there. I think we have to go round up there to the top. National Park is clean. OK, this is our kin's track. The summit still looms above us. There is the ocean. So now we've got double epic view. Hopefully we'll be up at the top within an hour. You can see where we came from. I can't see the top anymore. I can just see. It's pretty crazy. Look where we are. And look at the edge here. Oh, my God. They don't call this the most difficult track up Snowden for nothing. I tell you that. The other side, which is just as epic as the view we've had much anymore. No, no, no. It looks to me like we can pretty much see the top. So final push. I can see something. There's actually a building. It looks like I've never looked. There is a building at the top. Look. That's not exactly what I expected. But how are you feeling? I'm a little bit exhausted at the moment. Yeah. It's been a pretty crazy climb. And the fact that you can just take a train up here is ridiculous. But hey, you don't get to see what we saw. Maybe the next time we take a train up. Yeah. Oh, yeah, yeah. Once you've done it once, then that's it. After that, you can just train up, train down, all you like. Yeah, I can definitely see that the last bit's coming up up here, up to the summit. And it looks super busy, full of people. So it looks like there's a summit point up there. And there's also a big cure of people waiting to take a picture there. And these guys are drinking some beer instead. It's like, wait for a picture, have a beer. Well, I guess we'll have to get just shy of the summit then. Let's go to the nearly summit then. That's fine. Oh, yeah. I think we'll call this the top, because otherwise, and his friends, he's like, guys, where are you? They're like, we're down in the valley. We're eating grass. What are you doing? He's like, oh, bugger, we're in the wrong way. Compared to what I see up there with all the people, it's definitely the most epic. Definitely a challenge, but it's definitely an epic route. Most of the major downhill. And we're sort of coming into the bottom of the valley now. But yeah, we're starting to get pretty tired. Online, it's had six to seven hours. So it's been seven hours. But I actually think we've probably gotten to that hour until we get to the bottom. Probably. And then I'll be ready for a nice dinner until you. It's currently 4.30. So yeah, it was really good that we started quite early in the morning at 9.30 so that we could sort of really take our time and enjoy it. The thing is, when you're doing such a long walk, you know you're going to have like a seven, maybe even eight hour walk. Just taking it nice and easy, taking one step at a time. Don't try to go too fast. Don't try to get up there too hard, and you can make it. Otherwise, you'll just exhaust yourself. You'll just burn yourself out before you get to the top. The bottom. The end is in sight. OK, so we have decided that we are going to go in the water. So we're just making our way down. Ice water. If we were feeling tired, this is sure going to wake us up. Ice mountain water. So which pool is our pool? I don't know. We could just take the first one here. I don't mind. You'll take the first one here? Yeah. All right. It's time to get cold. We are back in the forest. Which means we are pretty close to the end now. Back where it all began, about eight hours and 15 minutes ago. Or 32,825 steps. That's not bad. That is a lot of steps. Well, here we are. This is our gate out. Made camp for the night. Check out our five stars. I would even say 10 stars. It was absolutely amazing, amazing day. It doesn't get better than that, hey? So I think that concludes our epic adventure for today. We hope you've enjoyed it as much as we have. And yeah, we're going to cook up our dinner. So good night.
