S2E13 - Mike's Walk, Snowdonia Lakes

Forty-year-old police officer Mike from Rhyl is in charge of the third hike.

His walk starts at the famous Pen-y-Pass. He leads the group up the Miner's Track and past the picturesque lakes of Llyn Teyrn and Llyn Llydaw as they head over to the ruined copper mine buildings of Britannia Copper Mine. They then climb up the steps to the third and final lake, Glaslyn, to catch a glimpse of the Snowdon (Yr Wyddfa) itself.

He also reveals a pivotal moment in his life that changed everything and led him into his current profession. But will he win the others over, or will the rain come and stop play for this competitor?

S2E14 - Zara's Walk, Great Orme

Fifty-one-year-old fitness and body coach Zara takes the group on a hike across Llandudno's Great Orme. They climb the hillside to reach the summit, past the historic Great Orme tramway. From there, it's a quick descent down to the west shore, taking in a gorgeous 360 degrees of the north Wales coastline.

As well as jaw-dropping views, Zara hopes her fitness-filled Great Orme walk - topped off with a spot of paddleboarding for good measure - will be a sure-fire slam dunk with the rest of the group. But could it be one challenge too far for the others?

S2E15 - Pier's Walk, Nefyn

It's the final day of the north west Wales walks. Last to lead is 55-year-old Piers, who lives in Llandudno.

His creative, fun-filled walk starts at Nefyn beach, where the walkers trace the coastline along sandy beaches and lush headlands. They visit three bays, passing historic brickwork ruins and shipbuilding sites before reaching the final stop at Ty Coch.

He also indulges the walkers in some South African cuisine and puts their drawing skills to the test, as well as treating them to a Welsh male choir serenade to round off the day.

At the end of the day, will he woo his fellow walkers and be crowned king of the walks?
