This September, Snowdon Mountain Railway will welcome world-renowned climber Hazel Findlay to The Picture House for a special live talk exploring ambition, resilience and the challenges we all face in life.
On Thursday 17th September 2026, Hazel will share stories from a lifetime spent climbing, competing and exploring some of the world’s most challenging landscapes, in her talk Conquering the Walls Within.
While Hazel’s achievements in climbing have taken her around the globe, this inspiring evening is about much more than climbing. It explores the mindset behind overcoming obstacles, building confidence and finding the courage to push beyond what you thought was possible.
Hazel Findlay is one of Britain’s most respected climbers and has established herself as one of the leading voices in the climbing world.
From traditional climbing routes in the UK to major expeditions overseas, Hazel has built a reputation for taking on challenging climbs while also exploring the mental side of performance, confidence and personal growth.
Alongside her climbing achievements, Hazel is passionate about mental wellbeing and helping others understand the importance of mindset when facing challenges, whether on the rock face or in everyday life.
You don’t need to be a climber to enjoy this event. Whether you enjoy the outdoors, are interested in personal development, or simply love hearing inspiring stories from remarkable people, Conquering the Walls Within offers something for everyone.
Located at Snowdon Mountain Railway in Llanberis, The Picture House provides a unique setting for live events, talks and experiences throughout the year.
With its connection to the railway and its location at the foot of Yr Wyddfa, The Picture House offers visitors a chance to experience Llanberis in a different way — not just as the starting point for a mountain adventure, but as a destination for inspiring evenings and events.
Llanberis is a hub for adventure, culture and outdoor experiences, making it the perfect location for an evening with Hazel Findlay.
Visitors can combine their trip with everything the area has to offer, from exploring the village and lakeside walks to discovering the landscapes that have inspired generations of adventurers.
Whether you are visiting for the day or looking for things to do in North Wales this September, Conquering the Walls Within offers a unique opportunity to hear from one of the UK’s most inspiring climbers in an unforgettable setting.
