  • Paragliding & Hang Gliding in Snowdonia
    Paragliding & Hang Gliding in Snowdonia Introduction Hang gliding and paragliding are well developed adventure sports worldwide. Nowhere is this more evident than in Snowdonia, an area where many well known pilots have honed their skills. The complex geology and meteorology of the area make flying its world class sites both a pleasure and a challenge. Essentially paragliding and hang gliding are the simplest and lowest cost ways of flying free, hence the term 'free flight' used to describe both arms of the sport. With portable equipment, a pilot can take off from a hillside or be towed into the air. From there it is possible to soar and thermal like birds, travelling along ridges and circling up to the clouds to travel XC or 'cross country'. This is as close to being a bird as humans can presently achieve, open to the elements with no engine noise to destroy the peace. Hang gliding is the oldest arm of the sport and uses a rigid structure to maintain the wing's shape and integrity. The pilot 'hangs' prone beneath the frame generating very efficient flight. At present very little hang gliding takes place in Snowdonia because of a combination of the weight of the wing (about 30kg) and a lack of easy access to suitable take off points. Paragliding is the baby of the sport and is still rapidly developing, flying slower than hang gliders, paragliders are relatively quick and easy to master. A paraglider is essentially a twin skinned parachute which, when inflated during takeoff and flight, takes up a classic wing shape.

We then descend the Ranger Path before climbing Foel Goch, Foel Gron and Moel Eilio, and head back to Lanberis.

  • 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.

  • 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.

    ANGLESEY & GWYNEDD JLDP (2011 – 2026) PUBLIC INQUIRY: Hearing Session 6 – NATURAL AND BUILT ENVIRONMENT Action Point S6/PG1 – General Refine policy wording to ensure consistency in terms of describing the degree of impact, i.e. the use, or not, of ‘significant’. Councils’ Response In respect of the policies pertaining to the natural and built environment, the Councils conisder that this is only an issue for policies PS16 and AT4 and are addressed under Action Points S6/PG5 and S6/PG10 respectively. Action Point S6/PG2 – Paragraph 7.5.2 Present Matters Arising Change to correct the last sentance of paragraph 7.5.2 to note that the whole of Anglesey has been designated by UNESCO as a Geopark. Councils’ Response After giving the matter further consideration it is considered that the sentence that refers to the GeoPark should be moved to the section relating to ‘landscape conservation’ rather than retain it within the section dealing with ‘nature conservation’. Also, it is considered that additional information should be included to explain the reason for the Island’s designation as a Geopark. Consequently , t he Councils wish to offer the following modifications (through Matters Arising Change): 7.5.2 Nature Conservation : Species of principal importance .................. Part of Anglesey is designated as a GeoPark. 7.5.4 Landscape conservation : Covering an area that incorporates the Anglesey Coast Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and the Llyn Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, to the boundaries of the Snowdonia National Park, the Plan area has a distinctive and diverse landscape. As well as the nationally protected Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty, the wider Plan area has tracts of unspoilt countryside that are locally distinctive and worthy of designation as Special Landscape Areas.
