    Tips

    Considered the most popular route up Southern Snowdonia giant Cadair Idris, the Pony Track is a wonderfully scenic approach. This ancient thoroughfare is relatively straightforward to follow and rewards with huge views as you progress towards Cadair Idris' north-facing escarpment. On the walk, it's easy to see why the mountain was once thought to be the highest in all of Britain.
