Description

Great route up Llechog with a party of two. The grade is 2/3 and it certainly merited the two stars it received in the guidebook. Route finding was a little confusing at times trying to follow the guidebook, but if you follow your nose, it all appears! The approach to the start of the routs was a bit of a slog through bracken and chunky scree and slow going. The rest of the route was clean and on solid rock.

Area : Snowdon Massif

Snowdon (Welsh: Yr Wyddfa, pronounced [?? 'w?ðva]) 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 "probably the busiest mountain in Britain".[3] It is designated as a national nature reserve for its rare flora and fauna.
