One of the starting points for your hike up Mt Snowden. Get in early for a spot, or park down the road for £5 and catch the bus. 🚙 Tips for Snowdon Climbers ⛰️ This car park is right at the base of the Pyg Track, making it an ideal starting point for anyone heading to the Snowdon summit. It’s wardened and offers toilet facilities and Wi-Fi, but be aware, spaces are extremely limited. If it’s full, your best bet is the Park & Ride at Nant Peris, about 3 miles down the pass. Be sure to check the bus timetable ahead of time. We were lucky to secure overnight for £40, though booking via JustPark on-site was a challenge due to poor internet signal. If you're visiting during peak season, pre-book your to avoid last-minute stress. Amazing views. Please note the following: 1. Start early otherwise bus services stops at 7:00 pm if you have parked outside this premises (Nani parking) 2. If there are delays coming back, the taxis would not necessarily available for you. 3. There are bunch of taxi services but few might try to rip you off by asking extra money. 4. Don’t expect phone signals to be great. 5. It’s best if you pre-book the thereby. 6. Also have few taxi numbers handy before start. Good place to start your walking/trekking journey to the top of Snowdonia. You can take longer route if you're with young kids or bit hard but quicker road if you're adult. Water refilling station wasn't working, not sure if its temporary or for a while. So take plenty water with you before starting your journey. The has to be pre-booked so we parked further down the road at Maes Percio and arrived here by park-and-ride which is very convenient. The weather was perfect and even when you arrive early there are lots and lots of people heading for the summit. Toilets are clean, there's a small shop to buy a guide, hats and gloves during colder months. An amazing place to start a walk of any nature, we only walked around the lakes but it was well worth it. Many thanks to the lads on the gate at the centre were absolute gentlemen. They looked after us as my wife is disabled which is a rarity these days. Cheers guys 👍 Great location for either the Mining or Pyg tracks. Wonderful route with amazing views. Lovely place. There are toilets and shops. must be reserved in advance. Buses run every 15 minutes.
