Camping near Snowdon

Q. Hi all at go4awalk.com, firstly can I say that this site is brilliant. After spending an hour on the web searching for a particular walk, I logged onto your site by accident and found the walk in minutes.

Me and my partner are going to attempt the gw134 Mount Snowdon (Yr Wyddfa) avoiding Crib Goch from Pen y Pass  walk this summer and we were hoping to put all our camping equipment to good use, are there any camp sites local to the 'Pyg Track'?

If so could you forward us their email address / web site address or phone numbers.

Kind Regards

Wendy Hughes


A. Lots of sites off the Llanberis pass road long before getting to Llanberis itself.

Best is on left going down at Ynys Ettws. Used to be £1 a night but I haven't been there for a few years.

No facilities!

A. The nearest 'place' to Pen y Pass is Llanberis or Nant Peris - try google for a camp site there. Failing that there is on on the S side of the A5 East of Llyn Ogwen though I don't know what it is called - it is pretty basic though.

Hope this helps
