Snowdon itself, at 3,650 feet (1,085m) is a prime destination for many, with the most popular routes to the summit ranging from the popular Llanberis path running parallel to theSnowdon Mountain Railway, to the more challenging Pyg and Miner's tracks. The Snowdonia National Park boasts some of the most beautiful and spectacular scenery in the country, and there are many ways you can explore it- by foot, horse, bike, train, boat or car- the choice is yours! Snowdonia also offers leisure facilities on a grand scale; sailing, canoeing, swimming, rock-climbing, walking, golf and horse-riding are to name but a few! Alongside easy access to historic castles and houses, steam trains, copper and slate mines- come rain or shine you won't be short of something to fill the time when you visit this area of North Wales.
The History of the town dates back to Roman times, and as its commanding presence demonstrates how it was set apart from other settlements in North Wales. And being the site where HRH Prince Charles was crowned Prince of Wales in 1969, it would be a crime not to visit this majestic and noble town! |
