  • Snowdonia & the Llŷn
    © Lonely Planet Publications Pty Ltd SNOWDONIA & THE LLŶN 3 PERFECT DAYS DAY 1 // CONQUER THE MOUNTAIN Check the weather forecast before making an assault on Snowdon (p226). If you’re fit, catch the Snowdon Sherpa bus to Pen-y-Pass and take the Pyg Track (p227). Time your descent via the Rhyd Ddu Path to catch the Welsh Highland Railway (p244) back to Caernarfon.

DAY 2 // BE A PILGRIM Spend the morning exploring Caernarfon Castle (p233) before heading for the Llŷ n Peninsula. Ideally you’ll have prebooked a boat to Bardsey but if they’re not running, make do with gazing at the island from Braich-y-Pwll (p239). Abersoch (p241), Cric- cieth (p243) and Porthmadog (p244) are good places to stop for the night, but Harlech (p218) has the best restaurants – along with another World Heritage castle.

Steeped in history, the 13½-mile journey winds its way from the harbour town of Porthmadog, past amazing valley views, cascading waterfalls, ancient woodlands and mountain peaks to reach the slate-quarrying town of Blaenau Ffestiniog. The Ffestiniog Railway is part of the Ffestiniog & Welsh Highland Railways - why not try both..! The Welsh Highland Railway - listed as one of the greatest train journeys in the world - runs for 25 miles between Porthmadog and the medieval town of Caernarfon, crossing the foothills of Snowdon along the way... 'Brilliant experience...' Waterlooman2017 "What a fantastic day out this is, beautiful scenery, interesting trains, reasonable prices. Above all, staff - paid and volunteer - really go out of their way to make you feel you welcome..." 'I just love the Ffestiniog Railway..!' Sue2468 "We travelled to Blaenau in the observation carriage - what a treat watching the narrow gauge line disappear behind us and enjoying the panoramic views as the train twists and turns up the valley. I have been travelling on this railway for over 40 years and still enjoy the journey..." 'Brilliant day out...' ClaireVF "A really good value day out as you can get on and off along the way. The drivers are very friendly and go out of their way to show the children how the train works. Good drink service and food offered. Highly recommended..." Take time out - or be energetic..

W. Carter, appeared in 1955*. Yet Merioneth has neVer had a published Flora. About the end of the last century Daniel Angell Jones (1861-1936), of Machynlleth and Harlech, compiled a manuscript Flora which is now in the National Museum of Wales. But in later life, it seems, he rather neglected the higher plants for bryophytes, on which he became an authority. In sixty years, British plant geography has progressed from infancy to maturity, and much work has been done in Merioneth ; ecology and cytology have been born, and opinions of the taxonomic status of many plants have changed in the light of experimental work.
