What does it involve?
At 1,085 metres (3,560 ft), Snowdon is the highest point in Wales and a real mountain challenge. With a long and winding path to the summit, this challenge lets you experience Mount Snowdon at its best. Trekking up to the top, you’ll be rewarded with awe-inspiring mountain scenery of Snowdonia National Park with the Isle of Anglesey and Irish Sea in the distance.
Parascending
Take a boat trip from the Pier along the River Humber. Parachute up to 200 feet – land safely back in the boat. You don’t even get your feet wet!
Take a look at the parascending website for Steve Webb who runs the boat trips http://www.humberparascending.co.uk/
