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.
Snowdon as part of a National Three Peaks Challenge. Leading a 5 novice trekkers, keen to complete the challenge in under 24hrs which we did. Teaching self management on the hill, nutrition, layering, pace, mental tactics etc. Strong winds and rain caused me to make the decision to descend to Llanberis.
