WELCOME BACK – The main “Castell Howell – International Snowdon Race”, now it’s 50th year, (48th race, due to Covid) is considered as one of the greatest in the world of mountain running, and attracts some of the best racers in Europe. For the 50years its been organized by the local community and all voluntary members of the organization committee. That’s dedication for you.
So we as committee decided to test a new concept on the 40th anniversary in 2015, ‘Snowdon Twilight’ race to be held a month before the may race. An uphill race only at 5.45pm which is rpoven to be very popular.
