I agree
But, I am also a bit of a heretic. I don’t have any negative feelings about the crowds. I recently walked up the Llanberis path, and really enjoyed it.
A big reason for my enjoyment was the diversity. On most hills, the occasional people I meet mostly look like me. Almost always, they are white. Generally, men outnumber women, and children and teens are a rare sight.
On the Llanberis path, it was a joy to have a discussion about the route with a Middle Eastern lad who didn’t have English as his first language - and to hear many people speaking in Welsh, as well as Urdu, Polish, Spanish and Romanian.
