Stefan, the owner of the café, usually has the latest weather report for Snowdon on a board outside, and there are toilets inside for customers. You will pass the delightful Pen y Ceunant Isaf (also known locally as Snowdon Café) which is a popular resting point on the way up.
It’s only about half a mile.but do take it slowly as it’s easy to walk too fast on this section and really tire people out unnecessarily. And then you will see the steep tarmac road ahead of you! This is a short lived but steep section – which will take you to the start of the actual mountain path.
Do make sure you’re courteous to local residents as you walk past their houses – either through monitoring noise levels, not leaving any litter and keeping to the pavement.Īt the cattlegrid, take some time to read the interpretation board about the Llanberis Path, which gives further information about the route, its history and points of interest. You will be walking along a residential street initially, towards its end and a cattlegrid – where the path is marked with an information board from Eryri (Snowdonia) National Park. Here you will a signpost with ‘Path to Snowdon’ on it – this is the way to the start of the Llanberis Path. Standing with your back to the Snowdon Mountain Railway Station in Llanberis, turn to the right and walk along a short section of road until a mini roundabout is reached, outside the Royal Victoria Hotel Snowdonia. Most of the path is well engineered and maintained to a good standard – with some slightly steeper loser sections the higher up the mountain you go.Ĭheck back with us if you intend to use this path in winter conditions, as there are specific hazards to be aware of in the snow. The route is considered suitable for families, groups and those new to walking as it does not pose many technical difficulties in summer conditions.
