Climb to the highest point in Wales (1,085 m) via the popular and scenic Pyg Track, one of the classic routes starting from Pen y Pass.The path ascends above the Llanberis Pass, passing under the dramatic nose of Crib Goch before traversing high above two beautiful lakes (Llyn Llydaw and Llyn Teyrn) to the left. It crosses a small waterfall near Llyn Glas, reaches a prominent standing stone, and emerges at the saddle (Bwlch Glas). From there, make the short final ascent to the summit for photos and panoramic views. Descent follows the same path back to Pen y Pass.This rugged route offers stunning mountain scenery, rewarding effort with dramatic ridges and lakeside vistas.
