Not so much wildlife but landscape.
Last week 3 generations of our family climbed Snowdon or Yr Wyddfa in Welsh.
We had been planning it a while and had booked an Air B and B in Snowdonia National Park.
Snowdon is the highest mountain in Wales and England being 1,085 metre (3,560 feet) at the peak.
We decided that as it was the first time we have climbed Snowdon we would go up the Llanberis Path which is the easiest, but longest of the six main paths
Distance: 9 miles (there and back)
Total Climb: 975m (3,199 ft)
Time: Approx 6 hours (there and back)
We started in one of the car parks in Llanberis village
As we started walking we couldn’t see the summit due to the low cloud.
After stopping for food at The Halfway House around 542m we carried on walking.
Another rest and time for some photos at Clogwyn station around 732m
The strangest thing was queuing to have our photo taken at the summit.
And as you can see the weather changed a lot the higher we climbed
Beautiful views coming back down as we came out of the clouds.
I would certainly like to climb Snowdon again, maybe using a different path next time.
