A wander along the Pyg Track to Snowdon summit
It was our wedding anniversary this week and we'd decided we'd have a wander up the Pyg Track to Snowdon summit. A little cloudy on the way up but our luck was definitely in as after hanging around the summit for 15 minutes the clouds lifted and the wonderful views were revealed.
Yr Wyddfa, the highest peak in Wales, rises majestically at 1,085 metres, providing breathtaking panoramic views over the Snowdonia National Park. The Pyg Track, renowned for its stunning scenery and relatively moderate difficulty, offers an exhilarating ascent to the summit. As walkers navigate the rocky path, they are treated to awe-inspiring vistas of the surrounding mountains and shimmering lakes below. The contrasting textures of rugged stone and lush greenery create a captivating landscape that enchants both novice and seasoned hikers alike, making the journey to Yr Wyddfa a memorable adventure in the heart of North Wales.

Eryri Snowdonia National Park is a beautiful area of Wales with endless photo opportunities from ancient castles to abandoned slate quarries and scenic villages. For many visitors the mountains, lakes and waterfalls are the main attractions and my Eryri Snowdonia photography showcases these wonderful places including sunrise photos of Yr Wyddfa (Snowdon) and the famous Llanberis lone tree, pictures of the stunning Glyderau mountains from my favourite Eryri Snowdonia location, Cwm Idwal and images of the most iconic mountain in Eryri National Park, the stunning mountain peak of Tryfan.
