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.
Led family group of 4 up Pyg Track and down Llanberis Path - parents and two daughters in early 20s. Not especially well-equipped group. One parent unfit, undisclosed autism in the youngest daughter (fear of new experiences) meant that ascent was painfully slow. Then further delay on way down as the other parent had knee problems. Managed to keep them all safe and in good spirits.
