Hi bigmamma I live near snowdon, The easiest way up is on the train, Lol, it is quite a long way up, The pyg track or the miners track are probably the easiest routes, When are you thinking of going, cos this time of year the weather can change dramtically in a few seconds, so if you are going to go up there, wear good clothes, good boots, take some chocolate, a torch and a whistle with you, and a mobile phone, also good idea to contact Plas-y-brenin, outdoor centre for weather report and advice before going up, (01690 720214) if you are coming to this area, let me know when, would be good to meet you, but I am away for 2 weeks from tuesday (hols) let me know,ok, you will love this area it is beautiful, take care, speak soon, Ray xx
