Pen-y-pass carpark now needs to be booked! No parking on the road or you will get a fine! Often the reason for a visit to the area, to summit Snowdon itself! The train needs to be booked and research is advised for the best routes if walking/climbing, depending on capabilities. An early start is essential, especially considering parking limitations. It tends to be busy and at times, very! There are so many alternatives worth considering too. The Cafe at the top is crap!

We'd recommend that you take the A5 (it’s nicer than the coast road) to Pen-y-Pass car park. Hike up Miners track and down Pyg track. You may need to book parking (check online before setting off). We’d recommend leaving as early as possible to avoid the crowds. Alternatively walk the Watkin Path and for those who are really brave take a dip in the Cwm Llan Falls to cool off. For those wanting a more leisurely experience, take the Snowdon Mountain Railway and meet the rest of your group in the cafe at the top. Booking essential.

Fabulous views and a great day out if the weather allows. Need to have good shoes, clothing and take snacks.

Snowdon (Yr Wyddfa in Welsh) is the highest mountain in Wales and England. It's one of our most famous and regonizable landmarks and is well worth a visit. Standing tall over the village of Llanberis, Snowdon is a part of a close-knit family of jagged peaks and can offer views of Snowdonia, Anglesey, Pembrokeshire and Ireland. Choose from six different paths to conquer this 1,085 metre (3,560 feet) giant which are the Llanberis path, Pyg Track, Miners’ Track, Watkin Path, Rhyd-Ddu Path or the Snowdon Ranger Path.
