  • Snowdon 500 – Route Descriptions
    Snowdon 500 – Route Descriptions About Snowdon Snowdon is one of the most beautiful mountains in the world. Its grandeur impresses the visitor no matter which direction one looks at it. Its shape is like a starfish with six magnificent ridges radiating out, each with their own unique character and make up. The deep cwmoedd (glaciated valleys) dropping down from the ridges range from the easily accessible to those only reached by very experienced walkers and climbers. Snowdon, the highest mountain in England and Wales at 1085 m or 3560 ft, also offers a unique bio-diversity of rare flowers and insects, wonderful volcanic rock formations, fossils and disused mine works. For more information about the mountain and places to stay nearby visit www.snowdon.com Miners Track After registering and signing in at the start point in the car park in front of the Legacy – Royal Victoria Hotel you will be transported by our free shuttle bus to Pen Y Pass where you will receive your pre climb briefing before setting off for the summit of Mt Snowdon. The Miners Track to Llyn Glaslyn was built during the last century to serve the Britannia Copper Mines, abandoned in 1917. The Track is well defined and obvious until you reach Llyn Glaslyn but after that the path to the summit is considerably steeper and can be a serious undertaking especially in winter. The path starts at the far end of Pen Y Pass car park. At first the path contours gently with fine views down the Gwynant Valley on your left.

  • Hill Walking & Mountaineering
    Hill Walking & Mountaineering in Snowdonia Introduction The craggy heights of Snowdonia are justly regarded as the finest mountain range south of the Scottish Highlands. There is a different appeal to Snowdonia than, within the picturesque hills of, say, Cumbria, where cosy woodland seems to nestle in every valley and each hillside seems neatly manicured. Snowdonia’s hillsides are often rock strewn with deep rugged cwms biting into the flank of virtually every mountainside, sometimes converging from two directions to form soaring ridges which lead to lofty peaks. The proximity of the sea ensures that a fine day affords wonderful views, equally divided between the ever- changing seas and the serried ranks of mountains fading away into the distance. Eryri is the correct Welsh version of the area the English call Snowdonia; Yr Wyddfa is similarly the correct name for the summit of Snowdon, although Snowdon is often used to demarcate the whole massif around the summit. The mountains of Snowdonia stretch nearly fifty miles from the northern heights of the Carneddau, looming darkly over Conwy Bay, to the southern fringes of the Cadair Idris massif, overlooking the tranquil estuary of the Afon Dyfi and Cardigan Bay. From the western end of the Nantlle Ridge to the eastern borders of the Aran range is around twenty- five miles. Within this area lie nine distinct mountain groups containing a wealth of mountain walking possibilities, while just outside the National Park, the Rivals sit astride the Lleyn Peninsula and the Berwyns roll upwards to the east of Bala. The traditional bases of Llanberis, Bethesda, Capel Curig, Betws y Coed and Beddgelert serve the northern hills and in the south Barmouth, Dinas Mawddwy, Dolgellau, Tywyn, Machynlleth and Bala provide good locations for accessing the mountains.

The study relates to the Ynys Môn Local Authority and Gwynedd Council planning area. S2 The aims of the study are several but the main objectives cover policy recommendations on affordable housing targets, thresholds, and guidance in setting commuted sums in lieu of on site affordable housing provision. S3 The approach to viability assessment follows best practice in Wales and England. The overall approach considers the financial relationship between residual value (RV) and existing use value (EUV). However in setting policy, a number of other factors are significant; these are set out in the report. S4 The methodology is two stage: ‘High Level Testing’ (HLT) and ‘Generic Site’ testing.

The hike was very well organised and our guides made the challenge fun. I will definitely be doing more challenges with these guys!” Paul, 2018 ​ Tackle all fifteen peaks in Wales above 3000 feet in under 24 hours - this is the Welsh 3000s, one of the ​ ​ most iconic challenges in the UK. This incredible 42km adventure is an unforgettable journey on two feet through the wild landscape of Snowdonia National Park. The official challenge is completed in under 24 hours, but we think completing it in any time should be on everyone’s bucket list! It is a fully guided and supported event, allowing you to focus on the epic scenery of this unique region of the UK. Highlights ● The breathtaking mountain scenery of Snowdonia National Park ● Embracing the physical challenge of tackling fifteen mountains ● Experiencing the awe-inspiring wilderness and beauty of North Wales ● Sharing the adventure of a lifetime with your other team members ● Completing a unique iconic mountain challenge ● Encountering the wild ponies of the Carneddau, our favourite mountain residents Itinerary Our route begins from the popular Pen y Pas car park at the top of the Llanberis Pass. Here you’ll meet the rest of the group and your leaders. There are toilets available and you’ll also be able to place a bag with extra snacks, clothing and drinks in our support vehicle for our planned refreshment stop. After a safety brief, overview of the day and kit check, we’ll begin by following the Pyg track then embark upon arguably the most technically demanding section of the challenge, the narrow edge of Crib Goch.

  • Rock Trails Snowdonia
    CHAPTER 6 Snowdon’s Ice Age The period between the end of the Caledonian mountain-building episode, about 400 million years ago, and the start of the Ice Ages, in much more recent times, has left little record in central Snowdonia of what happened during those intervening aeons. For some of that time central Snowdonia was above sea level. During those periods a lot of material would have been eroded away, millimetre by millimetre, year by year, for millions of years, reducing the Alpine or Himalayan-sized mountains of the Caledonides range to a few hardened stumps, the mountains we see today. There were further tectonic events elsewhere on the earth which affected Snowdonia, such as the collision of Africa and Europe, but with much less far-reaching consequences. We can assume that central Snowdonia was also almost certainly under sea level at other times. During these periods new sedimentary rocks would have been laid down. However, if this did happen, there is no evidence to show it that it did and any rocks that were laid down have been entirely eroded away. For example, many geologists believe that the whole of Britain must have been below sea level during the era known as the ‘Cretaceous’ (from 145 million until 60 million years ago). This was the period during which the chalk for- mations were laid down and which today crop out in much of southern and eastern Britain. The present theory assumes that chalk was laid down over the whole of Britain and that it has been entirely eroded away from all those areas where older rocks are exposed, including central Snowdonia.

It is provided in electronic form for your personal use and cannot be used for commercial profit without seeking permission from both the author/photographer and the Climbers' Club. Journal: 1963 Author: John and Ruth Neill © Copyright 2009 THE COPPER MINES OF SNOWDON JOHN AND RUTH NEILL Editor's note: My wife has again done most of the work in the preparation of this article. It concerns the mines in the central part of the Snowdon district. Little has been published as a connected account of these mines in the past, but our researches have shown that a good deal of information can be unearthed. The present article records what we have found so far, though there is little doubt that much more can yet be uncovered. One side-thought concerns the name "Pig Track", as it appears on one of the diagrams iUustrating the article. This name has long been the subject of con­ troversy, some spelling it "Pyg Track" (as on the Ordnance Survey) meaning the track to Y Wyddfa from Pen-y-Gwryd, while others render it "Pig Track" (as in the recent oflScial guide to the Snowdonia National Park), saying that the name is derived from Bwlch-y-Moch, where the track crosses the ridge between the Grey Cliffs and Crib Goch. The present P ... T ... was created in the 1880s, as a more direct route to Y Wyddfa from Pen-y-Gwryd via Pen-y-Pass than the two existing routes, the mines road and the pony track, by habitues of Pen-y-Gwryd of whom a leading hght was HaUiday (the "Tom" of Pont Tom — see diagram).
