Lovely video of my area ... thanks a lot. If I can leave a tip as a local, always use the Rhyd Ddu path. Much much easier access and parking. Always a very much quieter route. A little longer than the Miner's but not hugely steep at all, and some amazing views across Eryri and south-west along Pen Llyn and the sea. 😊👍
@@susie4886 Hello yes it is, you can't miss it. And at the one point where it splits the Snowdon route is clearly signposted. Here's a link to the description and map on my website: dgriff.gallery/snowdon-rhyd-ddu-path/ 😊👍
I always go up on the Pyg Track and then down on the Miners' Some lovely scenery over on the west, too. Try the Snowdon Rangers'. Well done on the climb and making the video. Hwyl.
Hi, Are both easy enough to do either way as a novice? or is one better then the other for the descent. Planning on doing it next month, potentially a swim on the way down, or a paddle if its cold 😆
Thank you for taking time to video your experience, heading there next week with a 13 and 8 yr old, will show them your video In the morning 👍 thanks again
Top Tip ,Don't climb it on ya 50th birthday at the end of November in a red weather warning with no training for your first time 😉 It took us 9 hours to the summit and back in rain, hail and snow. Zero visibility and the path was a foot deep in water which was running up hill. Best birthday ever 🤣🤣🤣
Hi Emma. Without the shadow of a doubt, it is a staggeringly beautiful place.. Not only does this video lift my spirits, but it also makes me feel like going to the airport and give it a try really, yeah! In no way could I dare to say no to so amazing a place. Nice photograph composition I must say. Thank you very much indeed for sharing. Stay safe 🙂 LIKE
Great video and very well broken down! We absolutely love Snowdonia and keep going back. If you have the courage you must try Crib Goch!! It was scary but so awesome. More recently we went back and did the miners trail to the south ridge and it was amazing because we saw maybe like 2 people almost the entire way.. That is until we joined up with the main path headed to snowdon. Every single time we have summited Snowdon there has been a pretty intense storm on the way up. Definitely make sure you take layers and are prepared for that! Cheers!
We had a very similar day as you guys on Saturday just gone but it was brilliant 👏 loved it my tip is don't rush up to the top take a look around and enjoy the moments
Wow.. This is the 2nd beautiful videos I discover in UA-cam about Wales.. I didnt know this Snowdon before, but now I know, such an attractive place to visit.. The other place I know of is Llandudno, also a great beautiful place. 👍👍
Great tips. Im going to wales tomorrow. Weather is going to be shite which is exactly the experience I was after ! I am prepared with raincoats and all.
This is a great video, with brilliant tips after watching this video, I'm really inspired to go to Snowdonia. I am now planning to visit in 2022. Thanks again.
Having been up Pen Y Fan several times and wild camped i Will be climbing Snowdonia for the first time in June and staying in Cefn Coed in a woodland camp . I will be travelling from Manchester by Train. What is the nearest Train Station to Cefn Coed because the site doesn’t give travel info on getting there. The campsite is within the National park and what is the best way to get to the start of the trail . Great video and tips and I look forward to experienceing it myself
I can't wait to go back to be honest Al! Had the best time but not the best weather while we were there 🙈 I will try a different route next time for sure.
@@Empire92online Morning Em, if you need any location advice or stuff just get in touch. I have spent a fair bit of time up there over the years and advice on some places I think you would enjoy. atb Al
@@susie4886 Yes Susie, I think all the main rouites on the Snowdon range are well pathed and marked out. To start this park at the Rhyd Ddu railways station car park - it used to be £5 to park up. If you are at all apprehensive about routes though and want something a bit different - there are a couple of mountain guides up that way that would guide you safely up and down any of the Snowdon mountains. I would look at Nick who I can assure you will provide a day you won't forget - he is quite a character www.nickliveseymountainimages.com/
Great to hear simple but very appropriate advice. Wish I had this media available 20+ years ago when I first climbed it. The alternative was summit station was open so enjoyed a Guinness in sunshine watching heads appear up from Watkin Path
Me and my son did Cardair idris as our 1st climb. We make the mistake of wearing trainers .did not make the same mistake for scarfell pike😊 doing snowdonia in May 2023 . Great info 👍 and video
Take layers, I've often found it has been sunny at the beginning and I'm taking a layer off. Then nearer the top the layers go back on as there is often cloud and it's just like being in freezing 🥶 fog.
Hello 👋 A few friends and I are off to Snowden over the weekend. We are taking two huskies with us. What I was wondering was can you take the dogs on the park and ride? They will be joining us on all our hikes. Thanks!
Hi Amy, the Pyg and Miner's are signposted pretty well! I can't speak for the others but I hear Rhyd Ddu track is a nice route. Hopefully I'll get another trip up there soon to explore that one 😊
Great video! We are planning a trip with my daughters 3y & 7y. Wonder if i take the same starting point as you but only go half way where Miners track and pyg track intersect. Would you recommend that?
Nice video and some good tips, mine is don't trust the weather forecast, two of the times I have been up set off in blazing sunshine and blue skies and was in a blizzard at the top, so be prepared 👍👍☕
Plan on doing this next summer if the world's some what normal by then , being a hill walker/climber from Scotland I've obviously done the Ben a few times so looking for a different challenge and this has always been on the list, anyway great wee upload here some great advice , however if there's 4 or 5 of you in 1 car you'd be aswell parking at the car park hee hee 🏴
@@Empire92online yeah don't do it ha only joking , suppose it's just like Snowdon in many respects , keep it light there's some tough bits especially near the top , parking isn't an issue , don't expect a view at summit been up loads of times and only seen a view once 😂, try do it during week cos weekends are always really busy , Ben Nevis Inn awaits at the bottom for a meal and we'll deserved beverage 😊
If you are tempted to drink from the streams, use a filter water bottle, please take your litter home with you, that includes banana skins and orange peel etc. Look well to each step and enjoy it.
Your video amazing , giving more information about hiking mountain route and tips. ,, for a beginner like me your video such a motivational .. and I would like to know which month Did you hike in Snowdonia national park?
I love your video! So many are just music to scenery and we need real tips! We are going this August and have a 13 year old and a 9 year old. I think they’ll be ok on the trails. My question is where is this trail in the National park compared to the dinorwic quarry trails? Can I stay in Bedd Gelert and get to both?
@@Empire92online OK ,very challenging the last third was gales pushing us back and hailstones also rain. But proudly we achieved it and tick goes something of my bucket list.x
@@wardyla11 which path did you go up and down please. I am going at the end of April (2023). If you don’t mind me asking what your level of fitness is and how challenging you found it. Any tips would be welcome as slightly daunted…
@@sootyspark7281 Llanberis, 3 hours up 2 and a half down, take your time have regular breaks, make sure you take the appropriate food and clothing, just keep telling your self you can do it. I'm 54 ex soldier , if you've not done it before just take your time on the steep parts.
Be aware of the time it would take to cover the distance, between PYG and the Summit, by either route, also be aware of the change in weather, visblity, time of day?
this is very helpful. thanks so much. quick question, how did you get on with your drone footage, was this all ok? looks like you are easily able to fly one, as long as you are careful about your surroundings! cheers
I had about 30 mins when the weather broke enough to fly it! It's super changeable up there so that was the biggest hurdle. I've got a dgi mini 2 which is below the 250g restriction which means I can fly it around people, have fun!

top tip- don't pay for parking in Nant peris, they don't check, and apparently they can't force you to pay because it's a national park, that came from a taxi driver who had worked there for 40 years
@@Empire92online I would not ever pay that... day light robbery... think is for a guaranteed space.. keep up with the videos they are cool fun to watch and some good knowledge
Im going here tomorow. I have a dog so i think your route looks safe enough and not boring! Thankyou for the tips, defo going to use the park and ride :)
@@Empire92online beautiful and amazing weather too. Little bit of snow and ice and top which was fun! We took the miners track so doggy could have a swim in the lakes!

Yeah that's probably a good idea. The year old might be okay with the climb up but it is probably a bit much for a 3 year old!
I'm going to be visiting here on a solo walk/climb when I get my car. Is it easy to "accidentally" seriously hurt yourself here?
As long as you stick to the marked paths, wear the right gear, and do your due diligence with the weather you should be good :)

I don't think so but thanks for the tip!
top tip- don't pay for parking in Nant peris, they don't check, and apparently they can't force you to pay because it's a national park, that came from a taxi driver who had worked there for 40 years
Wow! Did not know that :)
Is parking really £40 as I'm seeing £10 for pen y pass car park?
Hey Scott - it was correct at time of filming (May 2021) :) happy travels!
@@Empire92online holy smokes. I'll do the park and ride like yourself. Thank you.
Good plan! It was really easy and they are very frequent. Have a great time :D
Best place in the world!
Where’s your lovely jacket from? 😉

I think it is wise to train for the ascent if you are unfit. Train for the distance on the flat and with elevation (hills).
Probably a good idea!
Pen y pass is £10 for all day.
Great video
Thank you for updating :)
@@Empire92online my pleasure. Just watched your tryfan video was great. I've just got back from a few days up snowdon
@@rickywiltshire5579 thank you! That was a reeeeeally windy one. Maybe I'll get back up there this year 🤞

Oops just checked this looks like I read the info wrong. Highest outside of the Highlands! Thanks for flagging
I knew it wasn’t right........I lost trust in this video straight away.
@@Neha20206 sorry to disappoint 😅
Useful!

Tip 11, park the bike up, pitch the tent and go to the pub.
🤣 sounds good to me
Hi, what route did you take to get there and the route back please?
Hey, we did the Miner's and Pyg :)
Dont know where she got 40 pound... I paid 6 pound for 8 hours or it was 10 pound for 24 hours... but great video...
Correct at time of filming! £40 for 12-24 hours, which used to be £10 before the pandemic. Glad you enjoyed the video :)
@@Empire92online I went Saturday gone it was 6 pound.... before lock down it was still 6 pound. What carpark is the 40 pound
@@johnfiore9390 Pen-y-Pass sir :)
@@Empire92online I would not ever pay that... day light robbery... think is for a guaranteed space.. keep up with the videos they are cool fun to watch and some good knowledge
@@johnfiore9390 hey I’m going tomorrow using the pyg route where do I park?
I’m going in a few weeks 🙂
Awesome! Enjoy
There is a decommissioned nuclear reactor in the middle of Snowdonia National P.ark. Totally true. You wouldn't think so though.
That's really cool! Thanks for sharing
Im going here tomorow. I have a dog so i think your route looks safe enough and not boring! Thankyou for the tips, defo going to use the park and ride :)
Omg how was it?
@@Empire92online beautiful and amazing weather too. Little bit of snow and ice and top which was fun! We took the miners track so doggy could have a swim in the lakes!
Top tip - Take a power bank with you 😂
I have since got a power bank haha
@@Empire92online ❤️
Hey, do you think I can drive from London climb up and down and drive back to London all in one day? (With 2 drivers) or do you think that’s too ambitious?! 🏔🤣
Ummmm your legs may be a bit too jelly-like for the drive home! It's pretty tiring but give it a whirl if you want a challenge 😆
