These 'Big Events' are an ideal opportunity to spend a weekend away in Snowdonia enjoying the mountains, doing something a little different and meeting new people. They are different from Plas y Brenin's usual courses: the entire centre is dedicated to each of these events, which means the costs are low and you'll be sure to have plenty in common with the other visitors. What's more, the focus is all about the people you meet and the activity you enjoy together with very little emphasis placed on formal learning.
The Big Acoustic Walk
'There's always been a strong connection between the mountains and acoustic music. The peaceful sanctuary of our mountains has inspired countless classic melodies and spawned many a well-known lyric. From haunting ballads, to passionate anthems, our rugged mountainscapes lend themselves willingly to new melodies according to the changing seasons. Whether you are a musician, vocalist or just an enthusiastic listener, this weekend celebration of acoustic music and mountain walking is a great opportunity to share your love of walking and music with other outdoor enthusiasts and musicians.'
