I'm heading to to Llanberis in a few days and was wondering about what kind of trad gear would be advisable to take? Would a fair amount of routes be climbable with a set of hexes and some slings, or would we need some nuts too? Also is there much sport climbing?
Thanks!
Plenty of good sport climbing on the limestone and slate, although with the slate it is worth pointing out that bolted slate =/= sport climbing.
You would definitely want a set of wires as well as Hexes for the trad in the area, much the same as the gear in the lakes if you have climbed there before.
