Yr Wyddfa (Snowdon) - Wales' Highest Mountain

About

Yr Wyddfa (Snowdon) is the highest point in Wales, and everyone should experience the thrill of standing on its summit at least once in their lives. There are several routes up, most of which are manageable for all the family if you’re all reasonably fit (though we wouldn’t recommend the famous Crib Goch arête, which is more advanced). Make sure you prepare before you go! Have a look at the advice shared by Adventure Smart UK on how to prepare and what to expect when taking part in outdoor adventures.

You don’t even have to walk, though: just take the Snowdon Mountain Railway to the summit(April-October), where the visitor centre, Hafod Eryri, will do you a cup of tea which comes with complimentary views all the way to Ireland. Make sure you check opening times before you go.
