Llanberis Railway & Lake

We drove over the back roads, through interesting wee towns whose names were too long to pronounce or remember, past huddles of cars suggesting there was something going on here and there, and finally caught our first glimpse of Yr Wyddfa - Mount Snowdon! The top was covered in cloud though.

We stopped at Llanberis and caught the old steam train for a there-and-back around Llanberis Lake, where there were hundreds of people out on the water. Apparently, it's not usually this sunny here.

The train let us off a couple of times to look around and then took us back to the town.

After our visit to the National Slate Museum (see other footprint), we headed to the lake for a couple of hours swimming in the cold water!Læs mere
