Eryri National Park
Yr Wyddfa, Tryfan and the Glyderau, Cadair Idris, and the only true mountain scrambling outside Scotland.
Eryri has the hardest mountains in Wales and some of the best in Britain: Yr Wyddfa with its six paths and a railway, Tryfan and the Glyderau for scrambling, the Carneddau for space, and Cadair Idris standing on its own in the south. It also has a long coast, the Rhinogydd for solitude, and slate towns that have found a second life around the hills.
Llanberis, Betws-y-Coed and Capel Curig serve the north, Beddgelert the west, Dolgellau and Bala the south.
