This is a list of what are known as the Welsh 3000s, i.e. those 15 mountains in Wales that have a height of or more. Geographically they fall within three ranges, all sufficiently close to make it possible to reach all 15 summits within 24 hours, a challenge known as the Welsh 3000s challenge. The length of this challenge (from first peak to last) is about , but including the walk to and from any start point, this will total some . Most people undertaking the challenge walk it, and many achieve it in much less than 24 hours. The record for the challenge (from first peak to last) stands at 4 hours 19 minutes, by Colin Donnelly in 1988.〔(The Record ), Snowdonia Society website.〕 On 17/18 June 1978 John Wagstaff of West Bromwich Mountaineering Club completed a triple crossing in 22 hours 49 minutes, a feat which has yet to be repeated.〔〔Clayton & Turnbull (1997) “The Welsh Three Thousand Foot Challenges: A Guide for Walkers and Hill Runners” Grey Stone Books, Darwen, Lancashire. ISBN 978-1-902017-02-0〕 The walk is also known as "The 14 Peaks": Carnedd Gwenllian (or "Garnedd Uchaf") is not always included, as it has the least relative height, being little more than a bump on the ridge rather than a separate summit in its own right. Many people choose to make the small diversion to include it on their traverse. There is also an option to include a sixteenth top, Castell y Gwynt in the Glyder range, which has been reclassified as a Nuttall since a survey in 2007. The Snowdonia Society maintains a public database of persons visiting the 14 peaks in a single journey. ==Snowdon== * Snowdon/Yr Wyddfa = 3559 ft (1,085 m) * Garnedd Ugain/Crib y Ddysgl = 3494 ft (1,065 m) * Crib Goch = 3028 ft (923 m) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Welsh 3000s」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
