Snowdonia Accommodation – Enjoy The Stay Of A Lifetime

    That’s how many people visit Snowdonia National Park every year. A caravan holiday to Snowdonia promises unforgettable views, surprising landscapes, fascinating attractions and a warm Welsh welcome.

    The park is home to England and Wales’s highest peak, Snowdonia, which stands proud at 3,560 feet, but there is so much more to Snowdonia National Park than just mountains.

    Snowdonia Stats…

    Autumn and Summer 2015 in Snowdonia (Welsh: Eryri), a mountainous region in north west Wales and a national park.

    The stats speak for themselves: nine mountain ranges, 74 miles of coastline, 11,000 hectares of woodland and 1,497 miles of land to explore.

    One of the reasons Snowdonia is so appealing is the sheer variety of landscapes on offer here. From rolling hills, stunning valleys, and wonderful Snowdonia waterfalls to dramatic peaks, ancient forests, and hidden pools of water, it has it all.

    It is not surprising to learn that the area is home to some of the most interesting flora and fauna you’ll find anywhere. Look out for sightings of wild ponies and mountain goats, with glimpses of peregrine falcons, red-billed choughs, ring ouzel and owls not uncommon. Carrying a pair of binoculars is a must on a trip to Snowdonia!

    Take The Train

    If you want to climb Snowdon without getting out of breath, then for something a little more sedate, you can take a train ride up Snowdonia on the Snowdonia National Railway and see the breathtaking views from the top without the exertion of climbing.

    Once you’ve navigated the peaks of Snowdonia, you might want to go off and discover what else this enchanting area has to offer.

    Lakes, Caverns & History

    Make your way to Bala, home to Wales’s largest natural lake. Here, you can try pretty much any watersport, including kayaking, windsurfing, canoeing, and sailing.

    Famous for its slate caverns, Llechwedd Zipworld lets you descend into the caverns and undertake various challenges and activities. There are also underground trampolines and mountain bike trails.

    Take a step back in time with a visit to Trefiw Woollen Mill, one of the last working mills in Wales, or why not take a boat trip to Bardsey Island, a working farm where no cars are allowed and which is one of only 16 places in the world to be awarded International Dark Sky sanctuary certification?
