Itinerary description

The car can be parked in the pen-y-pass car park.
The walk follows the Pyg track. After a while the path divides and we continued right towards the ridge. We followed the ridge up to Snowdon. After admiring the spectacular views, we continued finishing the horseshoe.

The route is not technically difficult, but has some aerial sections that could be dangerous specially on bad weather conditions.
