Snowdonia and North Wales

Although Snowdonia is seen as the most wonderful landscape in North Wales there are many others including Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty such as the Llyn Peninsula with some of the best beaches Wales has to offer, the Isle of Anglesey with its 125 miles of wonderfully scenic coastal path encircling the whole island whilst in the east there's the Clwydian Range and Dee Valley, the scenic gateway to the region.

Glaslyn - Snowdonia

Looking down on Glaslyn - Blue Lake from the junction of the Pyg and Miners Tracks. It is found at approximately 2,000 ft above sea level in a cwm on the eastern flanks of Snowdon. Glaslyn is the source of the Afon Glaslyn, the major river of Gwynedd, which runs east to the reservoir of Llyn Llydaw, in the background, before turning south-west to reach the sea at Porthmadog.
