🌟 There's nothing quite like gorgewalking to bring a team closer together! Our incredible group had an amazing time exploring the stunning natural landscapes of North Wales. After conquering the challenges of the gorge, we took a moment to relax and appreciate the breathtaking surroundings. It's moments like these that make team building adventures truly unforgettable. Join us for an adventure that will strengthen bonds, build trust, and create lasting memories. 🙌
A walk around one of my favourite places. Nant y Ffrith, Wrexham, North Wales
Snowdonias newly installed dog gates. Great work guys. Great idea.
What are your thoughts? We think in theory it’s a good idea but who will actually bother to do it as a vast amount of people travel to go there without checking such things.
Hikers will now have to book 24 hours ahead to park at Wales' most popular mountain.
Useful little graphic for choosing a walk up Snowdon.
The impact of new Covid rules is kicking in. Sorry to say this. Oils have a huge impact on the incredible businesses in the North Wales leisure sector.
WE ARE CLOSED
Due to the measures implemented by the Welsh Government from 6pm on Friday 16th October 2020, we have taken the extremely difficult decision to close for the 2020 season. The railway will close on and including Friday 16th October 2020 and we will re-open in March 2021.
Any bookings affected by the early closure remain valid, and may be transferred to the 2021 season at no additional cost. In order to move your booking, please contact us via email only: [email protected] . Please ensure that you provide your booking reference on all correspondence. Please note, due to staffing levels during the winter months, it may take longer than usual to respond to your query.
All of the team at Snowdon Mountain Railway would like to thank you all for your support during what has been a difficult season. Please stay safe during the winter months and we look forward to welcoming you back in 2021.

Litter has always been my pet hate! I was taught to put the wrapper in my pocket and dispose of properly. Kind of logical you'd think, but there are still many that throw their litter.
This article touched home to me.
