A journey to the highest point in England and Wales! This is a challenging walk for some, up the famous Pyg Track. The route passes underneath the knife-edged Crib Goch ridges before zig zagging above the deep blue waters of Llyn Llydaw and Lynn Glaslyn to the col between Snowdon and Garnedd Ugain where you're greeted with a fantastic view over Anglesey. The final section to the summit runs parallel to the tracks of the Snowdon Mountain Railway. The return route doubles back down the top half of the Pyg Track before branching off down the Miners' Track giving you an opportuntity to view Snowdon's twin lakes from their shores.
We will need to drive (car share) to the start of this walk.
Food & drink
You'll need a packed lunch and at least 2 litres of water for this walk (especially if you've hit the bar hard on Friday night). There is nowhere to purchase any more food or drink at the beginning of the walk and the cafe at the top is likely to be rammed as it's a Bank Holiday weekend.
You can pre-order a packed lunches for the whole weekend from the ODL website in advance if that helps; they are under a drop down from Friday PM activities.
