    This is the clearest I've ever seen it at the summit. I've walked/scrambled up 3 times between 1985 - 1991 and it's always been cloaked in cloud.

    Could those who voted this video with a thumbs-down please explain what the hell your problem is? This is a magnificent video, with unique angles and perspective of the most beautiful mountain in the most beautiful country in the world.

      Some people just don't like drones. Usually due to having experience with irresponsible chav owners!

      I agree with you when someone is flying one over your back garden.... annoys me too, but this footage is amazing. The only thing I don't like about Snowdon is the lack of mentality at the summit where people don't have the brains to get their photo and then move off so that the next person can do the same. So you end up with 20 people all in each other's shots and no clear view. That is why the last time I went I did so around sunset and had the summit all to myself and got the pictures I wanted. Not that this has anything to do with drones, you understand! LOL

      I think I would have preferred more lingering views of the train and mountains rather than it being "strafed" by the drone. The shift between scenes was also a trifle "sudden" at times. A more languid and gentle treatment would have been preferable. Far too short a video too, IMHO. Is there a longer version? Still well worth a decent thumbs up though. That scene where they drew back to view the entire mountain was stunning! More should and could have been made of the scenery from this uniquely high viewpoint. They must have been pushing 4500 feet at times.

    Wonderful video because I did the entire trip in virtual reality on the Oculus Rift VR HMD, and the new Google Earth VR. Of course I am seeing the same thing in full 3D and I can look or move around to anyplace. In your exact same overhead shot, I was scared stiff. Do not fear however. I am recommending the real trip to everyone I know here in the U.S. This truly is an experience of a lifetime. There are similar long cog wheel rides on Mt. Kulm and Mt. Pilatus near Lucerne, Switzerland where the climb is much steeper. They take about 40 minutes each way. Did both those in VR too.
    FYI - The 3D is done with photogrammetry. Drones are now set up to do that.

    Did the Pyg track when I was about 10. My parents liked walking up wet hills and me and my brother were dragged along with them. A couple of days after walking Snowdon I failed to climb Cadair Idris and waited on my own by a large lake while my brother and parents climbed to the top. It was a different time.

  • @jibjab351

    Summer 1977, 4 of us rode our trail bikes right to the top of Snowdon. Up the path as far as halfway house then it got too rocky, so got onto the railway line and rode up the line to the top. Very naughty/tut,tut I hear you say, but when you re 17 do you think we cared - no. For anyone interested in motorcycles I was on a Suzuki TS250, the other 3 were on Yamaha DT400 and two Yamaha DT250s. Wish I had some photos but alas not.

    Would have liked closer video and some lingering shots, but I understand you not wanting to bother the passengers.
    A beautiful video overall though.
    I think this is the first I've seen of that train shelter at the summit station. Makes sense that it's there, of course. I understand the winds can get quite cruel at those heights.
