*Please be aware the Snowdon Mountain Railway will still run with low cloud and poor visibility. The weather on Snowdon is very unpredictable and can change very quickly. Trains cannot proceed all the way to the summit if weather conditions become severe I.E. high winds or snow and ice on the track. In such cases, trains will terminate at Rocky Valley, which is 5/8 of the way to the summit.

Day 1

We depart the local area and with a lunch stop on route, arrive at the 3* Royal Victoria Hotel in time for dinner.

Day 2

Today we enjoy the highlight of the holiday: At 3560ft, Yr Wyddfa (Snowdon) is the highest mountain in England and Wales. We take a diesel train ride on the Snowdon Mountain Railway for a journey to the "rooftop of Wales", and weather permitting, we will have spectacular views. We enjoy the rest of the day at leisure in Llanberis with the National Slate Museum (due to reopen early 2026), Llanberis Lake Railway and the Quarry Mans Hospital within walking distance of the hotel.
