Snowdon via Moel Eilio

About trip

The Moel Eilio ridge is one of the least used routes up Snowdon. This may be because it is a long walk, or is not so well known. It is not technically difficult, however a certain amount of stamina is required. The majority of the ridge is grassy and the walk is recommended in the direction given since this avoids descending a slope which is very slippery when wet (I found out the hard way!) Again there are several escape routes which will be mentioned when appropriate.
