Nothing original about this route, but it's still as good a climb as there is anywhere to reach Snowdon via the PYG Track, even if the Miner's return again seemed to go on a little longer than it should. No hope of getting near Pen y Pass after noon on a summer Sunday and very lucky to squeeze into the last space a mile below... Stunning clear views and a good beer on top.
Warning
Please note that hillwalking when there is snow lying requires an ice-axe, crampons and the knowledge, experience and skill to use them correctly. Summer routes may not be viable or appropriate in winter. See winter information on our skills and safety pages for more information.
