Have a Go at paddling!
If you’re looking for a peaceful way to soak in the mountain scenery, our sit-on-top kayak, canoe, and stand-up paddleboard hire is the perfect way to get out on the water. Designed for those who just want to have a go, these 1 hour hire sessions offer you the freedom to explore Llynnau Mymbyr at your own pace without the pressure of a structured class.
You’ll be provided with all the essential gear—including buoyancy aids— we’ll help you launch and offer some top tips on how to paddle and stay safe, and then you’re off paddling, enjoying the incredible reflections of the Yr Wyddfa horseshoe and Moel Siabod on the water. It’s a wonderfully relaxed, low-stakes way to connect with the landscape and enjoy a bit of time on the lake, whether you’re paddling solo or sharing the experience with friends and family.
Don’t forget to bring a change of clothes and shoes – you’ll probably get wet!
Have a Go at mountain biking!
Our mountain bike hire is perfect for beginners looking to try their hand at single track riding for the first time, or for others to improve their skills.
Bike hire is limited to our private pump and short circular skills track, where you will get to discover or improve your skills without the need for intense training or prior experience.
Whether you want to try out your singletrack skills or just have a bit of light-hearted fun testing your balance on the rollers and berms of the pump track, it’s all about enjoying mountain biking at your own pace.
We will provide the bike and all the gear, and our team is on hand for offering top tips if required to get you started, but there’s no pressure to be an expert—just hop on, get comfortable, and discover how much fun two wheels can be in the heart of Eryri.
Have a Go at indoor climbing!
If you’re curious about climbing but aren’t quite ready to scale a mountain, a Have a Go bouldering session at the Plas y Brenin indoor wall is the perfect starting point.
Designed specifically for beginners, or those that prefer their climbing low down, these sessions take the stress out of climbing by keeping things close to the ground, with thick mats beneath you and no ropes or harnesses required.
You can simply turn up, put on some climbing shoes, and start exploring our wide variety of colourful, easy-to-follow routes at your own pace. It’s a fantastic, relaxed way to test your strength and balance while picking up the basics of movement in a friendly, supportive environment.
Whether you’re with friends, family, or just looking for a new way to spend an hour, it’s all about having fun, building confidence, and enjoying the thrill of trying something new.
We don’t provide instruction, but our Team will support you to stay safe and can offer some top tips if required.
