  Yr Wyddfa (Snowdon) Walk – Up the Pyg Track, Down the Miners’ Track: A 7.5 Mile Circular Walk from Pen-y-Pass, Eryri (Snowdonia) National Park, North Wales.
  Yr Wyddfa (Snowdon) is the highest mountain in Wales, standing proud at 1,085 metres (3,560 feet). This classic circular walk from Pen-y-Pass takes you up the rugged and scenic Pyg Track before descending via the gentler Miners’ Track. It’s a fantastic way to tackle the mountain, combining dramatic landscapes, epic views, and a real sense of adventure, all within a manageable 7.5-mile loop. A great option for fit walkers wanting a big mountain day without tackling technical ridges.

  Yr Wyddfa (Snowdon) in Eryri National Park via Watkin Path and South Ridge Circular Walk, Snowdonia.
  The Watkin Path is one of six routes up to the summit of Yr Wyddfa, and in my opinion it is the toughest, the steep slopes near the top particulary from the Rhyd Ddu Path are challenging, and not to be underestimated. The first part however is an easy gradual climb through the tree’s and then as you enter the clear, you will see the peak and also the Rhaeadrau Waterfalls which you will pass, and maybe as we did, have a little swim in!
