Cymraeg Welcome to Snowdonia

There’s no doubt that Snowdonia is one of the top locations in Britain for outdoor activities. Whatever you want to do - from mountain climbing to kayaking, cycling to windsurfing – you’ll be able to enjoy it here. But you don’t have to climb the mountains, you can just enjoy the scenery. Explore a castle or an underground power station. Paddle in the sea or buy a hand-crafted mug. Rain or shine, whatever time of year, we really can offer something for everyone. Check out “Visitor Information”for ideas on where to go and what to do.

Sherpa Bus Service

Open Top Bus You don’t have to worry either about your visit having a damaging effect on Snowdonia’s beautiful environment. The Snowdonia Sherpa bus service means you can park your car and take the bus as it travels round Snowdon, linking up with walks, villages and attractions. Plan your journey using the interactive “Map”, “Parking” and “Sherpa Buses” links.
By reducing the use of your car in the national park you will be helping us work towards our goal of a cleaner, greener Snowdonia - enjoy your visit.
