seem to be the 4 most popular must get things, when/if this **** ever ends.


Me, i want to get to the SOL and just watch a game...Covid footy is ****.
 
Holiday would be nice.

Want to do a big trip to Japan, but that probs won't be for another year at least. I've got a Travelodge voucher though from a trip to London that was cancelled last year, so just looking at booking a few nights up near Snowdonia national park later this year.

Anybody been ? I've never been up that way. Looks like my type of thing, rocks, moss n ****.

Yeah, loads.

I don't think there are any Travelodges there though mate.

There’s one at Porthmadog. Apparently close to the national park boundary ?

I don’t know the area at all, so I’ll have to do some research.

Not a bad location to be fair, although you'd have to drive up to any mountains and such like.

Right at the start of the Llyn peninsula as well, which is very nice but also a drive.

A decent place to base yourself I suppose.

It was just the closest one to the park. If it’s a decent area I’ll go ahead and book it for the October half term.

What’s the park like for parking and then hiking up Snowdonia ?

Depends where you go. There are loads of quiet mountains but, equally, Snowdon itself can be a bit of a bugger to park near.

Where do you want to go? Who will you be with? What difficulty/severity do you fancy tackling?

I'm your man, done pretty much everything up there, all routes.

Going with the missus, my daughter (7) and the dog. I'd love to climb Snowdon, but wondering if it might be a bit too much for my daughter ? I don't want to be carrying her back down on my shoulders.

Can you walk up it and get that mountain train back down ? Does it even go up there ?

I don't know the area at all, so other than climbing some big hills, I'm not sure what's there.

Will do some research tonight, but yeah bro and good tips you've got would be really appreciated <ok>

My daughter bounced up there and bounded back down again when she was seven. It shouldn't be a problem.

That was from the car park at Pen y Pas, there are three routes from there. It's a twat to park though so you either need to get there first thing in the morning or drive to Llanberis and get the bus up.

We did Miners track up and PYG track down, no problem. As it goes, it my Mrs and eldest who moaned, my daughter pissed it.

You'll be getting there from opposite side of the mountain though so you either get that bus up or you do Llanberis oath, which is along side the train track, or the Rhyd Du path, which is quiet so you'd have no problem parking. You're starting lower down though, so longer schlep.

It's too busy for me, done it double figures times from all sorts of starting points.

If it were me, I'd go somewhere quieter but they are harder so maybe not suited to a seven year old girl.

Cheers bro, appreciated.

I'll be a tourist so happy to schlep along with the other tourists.

I've hiked the back country in Yosemite, so I'm fine with long challenging terrain. Good to hear that Snowdon is fine for a 7 year old too <ok>

Will have a good look tonight at some info on the area.

What about Caernafon or Bangor ? Are they any closer ? What are those areas like ?

Don't really know.

They are very Welsh, proper weird accent.

Nice castle at Caernarfon I think.

Criccieth is nice, that's near Porthmadog.

And if you go further onto the Llyn, it's lovely. Top beaches etc., proper rugged. Like a northern Gower.
