What is the Paddy Buckley Round?….
PADDY BUCKLEY ROUND (47 Peaks Ascent 28000ft Distance 61 miles)
This is the Snowdonia equivalent of the BGR (Bob Graham Round) and generally acknowledged to be a tougher by at least an hour. Most of the round is set in the well-known areas of Snowdon, the Carneddau, the Glyderau and the Moelwynion. Paddy Buckley devised the round. Although everyone will aim to complete the circuit in sub-24 hours no time limit is stipulated. The route may be started from any point and completed in either a clockwise or anti-clockwise direction.
