The summit of Snowdon (Yr Wyddfa) at 1085m (3560 feet) is the highest peak in England and Wales. It can be reached in one hour without any physical effort by a cogwheel railway to the visitor centre near the top. A further climb of 67 feet will take you to the actual summit, from where on a clear day there are stunning views of the Snowdonian countryside. The long grey building below is the visitor centre and a busy cafe.
