Discover Tours

Snowdonia National Park in northwest Wales is an expansive natural wonderland that covers 2,142 square kilometers (827 square miles). Known for its rugged landscapes, the park is home to Snowdon, the highest peak in Wales, as well as other impressive mountain ranges, verdant valleys, ancient forests, and a stunning coastline along Cardigan Bay. The park is a magnet for outdoor adventurers, offering a plethora of activities from hiking and mountain climbing to mountain biking and water sports.

The crowning glory of the park is Snowdon itself, which provides a variety of hiking routes to suit all levels, including the more leisurely Llanberis Path and the challenging Pyg and Miners' Tracks. But Snowdonia is not just about this iconic peak; there are 13 other peaks above 900 meters (2,953 feet) to explore, as well as countless lower-level trails that take you through scenic countryside, past cascading waterfalls and serene lakes.

Snowdonia's natural environment is a haven for wildlife. The area is renowned for its birds of prey, including the red kite, peregrine falcon, and osprey. The park is also home to otters, polecats, and the rare Snowdon beetle, among other fauna. The flora is equally diverse, including special alpine plants like the Snowdon lily, and various species of mosses and lichens that thrive in this mountainous environment.

The park is steeped in history and folklore, from ancient stone circles and Roman forts to legends of King Arthur and Welsh myths. The cultural heritage is rich and varied, influenced by Celtic, Roman, and Anglo-Saxon history. You can visit historical sites like Harlech Castle and the medieval town of Conwy, both of which offer a glimpse into the area's past.

In summary, Snowdonia National Park is more than just a natural playground; it's a place where the adventure is as varied as the stunning landscapes that surround you. Whether you're a seasoned hiker eager to tackle Snowdon and its neighboring peaks, a history enthusiast looking to explore ancient sites, or a nature lover hoping to spot some of Wales' most iconic wildlife, Snowdonia offers an unforgettable experience. Its combination of natural beauty, rich history, and cultural significance makes it a must-see destination for anyone visiting Wales.
