Yr Wyddfa Snowdon - the best views in Snowdonia
Yr Wyddfa Snowdon is the highest mountain in Wales and also one of the most popular mountain summits for visitors. The views from the summit of Snowdon can be pretty incredible, if you're lucky to catch good weather. A sunrise is my favourite time to climb to the top of Snowdon Yr Wyddfa as during autumn & spring it's nowhere near as busy as the summer months. The weather conditions also give you a great chance of photographing a temperature inversion where the clouds surround Wales's highest peak like a blanket. Here are some of my favourite photos taken from the summit of Snowdon in Eryri Snowdonia National Park. If you'd like to see more please visit my website gallery:
