    Tips

    Running

    The Snowdon Ranger Path climbs Yr Wyddfa (Snowdon) from the Snowdon Ranger Youth Hostel in the west. It's about 4 miles (6.5km) each way with 3,071 feet (936m) of ascent. It's one of the quieter ways up which is nice but can still be busy on a popular day.
    For a runner the Ranger path is great, it's well surfaced and easy to follow, great running in descent and most of it is fairly runnable in ascent.
    This section is the steepest and rockiest bit, the trail zigzags up the mountain here with some good wide ridge exposure.
