Trip Details

George and Amber-Rose take their first wild camping trip to Betws-y-Coed November 2025.

We moved to North Wales in July last year, and we are slowly beginning to explore wild camping and swimming spots around Eryri (Snowdonia).

The aim for this trip was to explore the hills south-west of Betws-y-Coed and potentially swim in Llyn Elsi.

This is our 32nd hiking video in a series where we tell the story of our rewilding trips into nature.
