Mountain conditions around Llanberis
 
You can reach the summit of Snowdon by train or on foot. If you choose the latter then the choice lies with one of the six main paths that lead to the summit. Three of which are easily accessible from the village of Llanberis. Please be aware of the weather which can change very quickly and catch out walkers who are not prepared for deteriorating weather conditions.

    

Suitable clothing and footwear should be always worn, and protective equipment, food, drink, map and compass carried on mountain walks. There are many accidents and fatalities every year on Snowdon, please do not be one of them.

Llanberis Pathway

This is the running season and many local athletes use the Llanberis path to train for the Snowdon marathon and the Snowdon race. Walkers should be aware they have as much right to use this path as walkers and tourists. Please make room for them.
 
The Llanberis mountain rescue team are a group of volunteers, all with full time occupations. Please do not call on them unless the situation is serious...
