Organiser's description
There are ten criteria a street must meet to be in contention with being named the steepest, including having to be a public thoroughfare and being fully surfaced, as well having buildings alongside the road. The awarding of the Guinness World Record to Ffordd Pen Llech and the battle from the previous holders in New Zealand to take the title back has captured imaginations world wide and people have flocked to Harlech to walk, cycle or even roll down the street - you just can't beat a bit of Welsh pride mixed with a sprinkling of the eccentric.
With Harlech already on the Always Aim High Events map as the location for our much loved sprint triathlon and duathlon, people started to ask and we just had to deliver!
Being part of this inaugral event will be something that you will tell people about for many years to come. We hope to see lots of people getting involved and enjoying a weekend in beautiful, friendly Harlech.
This event is an Always Aim High Community Event. Profits from our Community Events go towards supporting amazing local projects and community groups like Harlech Triathlon Club, local Community Councils, local Mountain Rescue teams including South Snowdonia Mountain Rescue, Ogwen, Aberglaslyn and Llanberis MRTs, along with many more community projects.
