Snowdon (Welsh: Yr Wyddfa) is the highest mountain in Wales, at an altitude of 1,085 metres (3,560 ft) above sea level, and the highest point in the British Isles outside Scotland. It is located in Snowdonia National Park (Parc Cenedlaethol Eryri) in Gwynedd, and has been described as "the busiest mountain in Britain". It is designated as a national nature reserve for its rare flora and fauna.
Group of first time hill walkers on a trip to the summit of Snowdon. A very busy weekend so I decided to go up via the Watkin Path for more interest and down via the Rhyd Ddu Path. The day unfortunately remained over cast all day so they didn`t get any great views from the summit. However, the cloud cleared enough for some good views down to Glaslyn and on the descent there were some nice views across to Cardigan Bay.
