  • Climbing Snowdon is the BEST hike I've ever done in the UK. Incredible views the entire way. What a beautiful day! This is my experience :)
    Thanks so much to YHA for the accommodation!
    I stayed at YHA Snowdonia Pen-Y-Pass which is THE place to stay if you are going to climb Snowdon, it is literally right next to the start point of the hike so couldn't be more convenient for an early start!

    Thanks also to our lovely hiking guide Dan from RAW Adventures.

    He took us a route that no one else went which was so much fun and incredible alternate views that were unique to just us!

    I just did Snowden, we left from penny pass car park, walked in about halk an hour in on the lower route to the lakes and camped there by that bridge kinda thing at 9 min, little pop up tent so easy, and left for the top in the morning. Then went and camped near Tryfan, pop up tent is so easy to take down and move campsites when you drive past one you like lol and sleeping under the stars etc. And you can wild camp pretty much anywhere, free lol

    Hey Christianne :) this was awesome seeing such a great travel vlog from North Wales! I live on the doorstep and feel super lucky to have it right here but I swear nobody seems to realise just how beautiful it is...it's got so much potential! Hiking Snowdon is definitely my favourite walk too. The views from the top are always worth it - glad to see you got some decent weather so you could actually see everything from the summit haha. Love what you're doing - keep it up!

    I'm looking at taking on snowdon and Ben Nevis, thank you for making this video it gave me a good idea of what's needed and what in store on the route. Thanks for putting the time to make this video, I have no one interested in doing this is there groups that meet to tackle the peaks?? I don't fancy doing this for the first time solo lol.
    Keep up the great work

    Funny story
    When I climbed snowdon it was very bad weather and we couldn’t see off the edge. My dad had originally planned to take the train back down but it was closed due to lightning. My sister and cousin, trying to be responsible, decided to walk back down on their own (they were both 14) and my dad had a mini panic attack because he thought that they made the wrong, long path when they didn’t so my dad killed his feet for no reason. He was not happy whrn we got back.

      Not trying to sound rude or anything, but Mount Snowden has different routes & tracks for people with different abilities. That’s why they have an easier route and a difficult route. I took the beginners route So it was a lot easier, hence why it only took me two hours to get down, and four hours to get up

    there are ZILLIONS of clones of you in alternate realities who go their entire lives from birth to death and beyond without wearing trainers,sneakers, tennis shoes, running shoes or athletic shoes EVER (your alternate reality clones never wore trainers, sneakers, tennis shoes, running shoes or athletic shoes ever and they will never wear trainers, sneakers, tennis shoes, running shoes or athletic shoes ever). In those realities, the only shoes that your clones wear are high heels, flip flops and sandals .
