snowdon Yr Wyddfa sunrise temperature inversion photo Eryri SnowdoniaSunrise breaking at Snowdon / Yr WyddfaEryri Snowdonia is a stunning National Park in North Wales and home to this amazing mountain, Yr Wyddfa (Snowdon), the highest peak in Wales. This photo was captured following a pre-dawn hike to the summit which turned out to be a pretty spectular morning in the Snowdonia National Park with Mother Nature putting on an amazing temperature inversion below Snowdon summit. snowdon summit snowdonia inversion photo North Wales mountainsSnowdon summit above the cloudsAn incredible view of a temperature inversion from the summit of Snowdon (Yr Wyddfa) in Eryri Snowdonia. You often see queues on the summit of Wales’s highest mountain but my luck was in this morning having these views all to myself for a good 20 minutes, plenty of time to capture a few photos. sunrise at snowdon & crib goch on the snowdon horseshoeSunrise on Snowdon & Crib GochAn autumn sunrise photo looking across Llyn Llydaw to Snowdon (Yr Wyddfa) and Crib Goch.
