Mt Snowdon

I had heard rumours that there were actually mountains South of Scotland. I didn't beleive the rumours myself, so Kris, Dean and I set out to put an end to them. We was wrong.

On the Saturday morning we drove up to Liverpool to check out the nightlife with the intention of hiking up Mt Snowdon the following day. The idea was that Liverpool looked quite close to Mt Snowdon so we would be able to get an early start and make it to the summit in time for elevensies. Our plan came undone early Sunday morning about 3:30am when we stumbled through the door and realised we wouldn't be leaving early after all. Ooops.


Snowdonia national park is at the Northern end of Wales and is absolutely stunning. With the snow capped mountains on either side you could be forgiven for thinking you were in Scotland, New Zealand or Canada. By the time we made it to Mt Snowdon, parked the car in the nearby town and got to the start of the hike we had about 5 hours of sunlight left - not enough for a summit attempt but enough to make a go of it anyway. The hike was brilliant and definately recommended to anyone looking for an easy weekend escape from London.
