Latest News From The Conwy Ascent

The Conwy ascent has been rescheduled for Sat 27th Sept. Times are similar but please go by the files linked from the home page rather than by the website pages.

If you need to shuttle cars to the finish, be aware that a lot of the route is now 20mph so allow extra time. It feels like walking pace through the villages on the B road up the valley so don't get caught out.

If you are leaving your car at the start car park for the day rather than having someone drive it up to the finish after the boats have started could you pay for the parking as you go in. The council are happy for us to base the start there but don't want the car park cluttered up all day.

Please note from the 'Conditions and safety' page that we have set cut off times at Tal y Cafn bridge to avoid getting the safety cover too spread out.
