A Scenic Climb from Llwyb Cwellyn to the Summit ⛰️ 3,071 feet / 936 metres. We began our adventure from the Snowdon Ranger car park (£6/day, info board and basic facilities like portaloos), located right at the foot of the trail. The car park was already busy when we arrived. The Snowdon Ranger Path is the most scenic routes up Yr Wyddfa (Snowdon), and is ideal for families.

I would hight recommend doing this if you’re up for a challange and definitely bring and friends and spare socks for the walk back down. Car park was very busy and is first come first serve basis. Cost £6 for the day so can’t complain as it took me and my partner 10 hours up and down with all the brakes and taking...
