Mt Snowdon

This weekend was a Bank holiday long weekend. We travelled to Snowdonia National Park in North Wales (4hr drive from Bridgend). We climbed Mt Snowdon - the highest peak in England and Wales. These photos are taken from the summit. The 14 km hike took 5 hours, 2.5 hours of uphill climbing to get to the top, it nearly killed us!
The weather was great, we actually got sunburnt! The following day it rained so we were very glad to have made the summit when we did. There is also a train that takes you up the mountain if you aren't up for the walk, it has been running since the 1800's!
