At 1,085m tall, Mount Snowdon is the highest mountain in Wales and the most popular mountain in the UK, with over half a million people climbing it every year. If you’re thinking of joining them, then there are a few things to keep in mind when planning your ascent. The first thing you’ll want to do is choose your route, as there are six different paths to the summit of varying difficulties. Experienced hikers may want to take on the more challenging routes like Crib Goch and The Watkin Path, while novices may prefer the easier Llanberis Path or Pyg Track. Whichever trail you choose, be sure to check the weather in advance and pack wisely, as the temperature and conditions can be quite different when you reach the summit. Reward yourself after the challenging climb with a stay in one of our Snowdonia hot tub lodges.
Wales has a rich and proud history, with many notable castles to explore, and Snowdonia is home to several of them. Discover the medieval Dolbadarn Castle in Llanberis, with its stunning views of Llyn Padarn lake and the Llanberis Path up Mount Snowdon, or wander the romantic ruins of Dolwyddelan Castle near Betws-y-Coed, set atop a rocky outcrop. Walk along the top of the castle walls in Conwy which surround its well-preserved castle, or roam the coastal fortress of Harlech Castle, both UNESCO World Heritage Sites. These sites combine remarkable history with breathtaking scenery, allowing you to soak up the beauty of this enchanting region.
Snowdonia is steeped in Welsh culture and has a fascinating heritage you can discover at local museums and sites. For an insight into the region’s industrial past, the National Slate Museum in Llanberis will teach you all about slate mining life, as will visits to abandoned quarries and mines like Dinorwig Quarry or Penrhyn Quarry, and villages like Blaenau Ffestiniog with its narrow-gauge railway that used to transport slate. Heritage railways like this Ffestiniog Railway, together with the Welsh Highland Railway and the Llanberis Lake Railway, are a spectacular way to see the area, traversing picturesque valleys and the surrounding mountains. In the local villages, you’ll find a strong sense of community and Welsh culture, evident in local events, arts and music.
