| There are many routes up and down Snowdon, each with their plusses and minuses. Many people opt for the classic ridge of Crib Goch as their preferred ascent, before racing down the Pyg Track or the Miners' Track back to Pen y Pass. While the way up can't be beaten - it's the UK's finest ridge outside Scotland - a better day out descends by the little used Lliwedd path, which keeps you up high to admire the views for as long as possible. | ||
