The Top of Wales During a Heatwave? I Think We Should Start Early...

[@alibenkahn5092]

Aussie bushwalker here. A good tip for walking in warm weather is to freeze some water i.e. a bottle of water the night before. It will gradually thaw out during the day and will be lovely and cool for quite some time.

[@VisitingPiddlyStations]

Thanks for using Yr Wyddfa. You said it perfectly. And Rhyd Ddu too. It means a lot to us Welsh speakers Steve!

[@steve-marsh]

Thanks, I try to be respectful (but usually fail!) :D

[@suzannebell51]

Well done guys - that was quite an achievement! I had my heart in my mouth watching you negotiating that ridge, particularly on the way down. The scenery was well worth it, thanks for taking us along with you😅

[@steve-marsh]

Thanks Suzanne! I'm glad it wasn't any more scary or I would have struggled!

[@cameronabell76]

Try the Crib Goch ridge on the other side - I did it that way back in my younger days(!) - It's very exposed with steep dropoffs on both sides, there were people crawling along it when I was there!

[@suzannebell51]

I don't think I will be trying that one😯@@cameronabell76

[@4sstg]

Just one old lady on social security who subscribed to your channel. I can’t always read the two different size fonts in your written information. My eyes focus more slowly now and you take the writing down before I can read it all. Your other fans probably don’t have this proble. I watch on my tv with a streaming device. I send this comment on a small iPad. I really enjoy your videos. I cant travel now, and your videos are a treat. Thanks for them. Just one critical note. Probably the only one.

[@DavidChallis-dj3ek]

Sadly when you pause on a Tele it obscures the info, not sure about Ipad but on a PC you get full frame when paused. KZbin should take the hint and stop trying to be too clever!

[@scottie2636]

Steve, you two have got to be healthier than most people in the world. To climb uphill for three hours is a feat. The guy carrying his bike is amazing, he didn't even sound winded when he was talking to you. The views from up there are breathtaking!! Thanks for the video. You and your companion stay safe and well. Dave in the U.S.

[@steve-marsh]

Haha that guy put our efforts in perspective :D

[@gerardbooth40]

As you get older it's very true that the descents are much harder on the joints and muscles than going up. I've not taken that route for about 30 years but feel inspired to do it once more. You had a great day for the walk and were very sensible to go up early. Thanks for another great video.

[@steve-marsh]

Thanks Gerard! Seriously, the early start was our best decision of the day!

[@DreamClean]

The descent was the trickiest part for me. Feet sliding to the front of my shoes was damn painful.

[@carolgraham4537]

Amazing. I'm afraid of heights and that path was so narrow and close to the edge, it made me feel dizzy. The views were spectacular though and I loved the view from the summit especially. Thanks to both of you for allowing me to visit places I can only dream of going to,

[@steve-marsh]

Thanks for coming along Carol!

[@priestland1]

Yes was thinking the same, narrow path and some steep slopes both sides.

[@VICKI-d5q]

Bloody hell! That's a no from me. Gave me vertigo just watching lol.

[@danieljones4754]

Pronunciations were pretty much spot on. Always appreciated when someone puts in the effort

[@steve-marsh]

Oh I try (but normally fail!)

[@notactuallymyrealname]

Such a beautiful day for it! I hear you on the crowds that the summit train can provide, but from where I live in the US, the lack of public transit access to the great outdoors can often be disheartening. The idea of a little ride up to the top of the highest peak -- or maybe even taking it halfway so you still get to stretch your legs -- is DREAMY.

[@steve-marsh]

Well said Lauren! :)

[@eamonquinn5188]

That ridge terrifies me!

[@tommykavanagh6106]

Steven I absolutely love all your videos from the very first one ....keep up the great work ...love it ... regards Tommy from a little town called Gorey in Wexford...southest Ireland..PS ..we have the oldest working lighthouse in the world here in county Wexford Ireland come visit....xx

[@gabrieleortiz5041]

Stunning scenery, and hats off to you for making it the whole way to the summit! There were some nail-biting drop-offs there along the path - could you hear our collective inner voices saying, “Back up, you’re too close!!”? 😅 Fantastic journey, you two, and many thanks for carrying us along with you. 😁

[@steve-marsh]

An absolute pleasure! And unlike most climbs, this really WAS a pleasure, not too difficult, but beautiful scenery :)

[@sandiandgregh]

Now, we know that all Steve Marsh videos MUST include some uphill steps but this was EPIC! What a hike and those views!! We definitely will be going to Wales in the future but with my very dodgey knees, I'm afraid we'll have to "step up" and buy a train ticket if we want to get anywhere near that summit. Well done to both of you. And Alicja, you are a rock star, doing the downhill portion and not spilling a drop of your coffee. I'm in awe. Thanks, as always, for sharing. Have a great week!

[@steve-marsh]

Haha the coffee must be protected at all costs! Good for me too because she'd be so grumpy without it :D

[@tonym480]

I did Yr Wyddfa (Snowdon) for the first time via the Llanberis path in 2017 when I was 67. The thing I was not expecting was how busy it was. I never in my wildest dreams thought there would be so many people on their way to the top of a mountain 😄 I would like to go back and climb it by another path, but being 74 now, I'm not sure that I am still fit enough. I do enjoy watching others attempt the ascent. Good job both of you. Wales is amazing 👍

[@steve-marsh]

Good job mate, I'm finding it hard enough at 50!!!!

[@freddie.rhodesr9984]

@@steve-marsh no way do you look 50, 😊

[@mk1aquatic739]

I did the Snowdon horseshoe (via Crib goch and round to Llewedd)a few years ago. From Crib goch to the flank of Snowdon there was hardly anyone about. Then as I approached Snowdon summit it was like walking into a busy supermarket, because of all the people that take the train. It surprised me as well! 100 yards further on from the summit and the rest of the route, it was quiet again.

[@sallyelling9329]

Wonderful walk, would have loved to do it in my younger day, now all I can manage is a walk round the local supermarket. Love your videos.

[@graemewilliams3212]

Fair play to you both! Never been up Rhyd Ddu path but it looked incredible! Also, Steve, you pretty much pronounced those Welsh names spot on. Wish more hiking KZbinrs could do that. :) Looking forward to Part 3 of the Welsh trip!

[@steve-marsh]

Thanks so much Graeme! I always try to be respectful, but it doesn't always work :D

[@167curly]

Congrats on your memorable hike/climb, guys.

[@paulpaine1014]

The Rhyd Ddu path is one of the best routes up and its also one of the quieter ones! Good choice! I like the fact the railway makes the mountain top accessible for people who couldn't physically walk up, but at the same time a lot of people use it as the lazy option and miss out on so much. The great thing about Snowdonia is that there are a lot of other peaks with views of Yr Wyddfa and non of the crowds. If you think that was busy you should see it at lunchtime on a weekend. There are literally people queuing to take a selfie on the summit

[@steve-marsh]

Ah good tip to try some of the other summits!

[@ScottishT]

The best Steve and Alijcia combo in the world

[@jimmymorrison8314]

Pair of legends! That's a rough trail compared with the Llanberis path, fair play to you both. Coming down is surprisingly taxing too isn't it. Excellent video.🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

[@xix94]

Coming down I could not stop tripping on the steps 😂

[@steve-marsh]

Yeah we underestimated the descent!

[@davedacigarguy]

@5 min :30....It's a good thing you didn't start singing, Steve! 😄😄😄 All kidding aside - it was a fantastic video! The views of the valley and the summit - just magnificent! I couldn't believe there's a cafe at the top! Thanks for doing this!

[@timrosenburgh8597]

Well done both of you, a great achievement. Certainly a long climb, but the view's were amazing. Look forward to the next one mate.

[@steve-marsh]

Cheers Tim, such a fun walk!

[@floydsullivan3432]

Absolute beautiful picturesque sights.

[@MrGreatplum]

What a great hike and looks like you chose the right path and the time of day too! I quite like the idea of mountain railways etc to get to summits; yes, it makes it busy but you get facilities and it means those who wouldn’t otherwise see the summit can get there. If you want to see this sort of infrastructure done well, go to Switzerland where there are cable cars / funiculars and mountain railways everywhere :)

[@steve-marsh]

Well said!

[@brentfairlie9159]

I have so enjoyed this episode. Thank you. Mt Snowden was my favorite part. It is just amazing up there by the look of it. Hate to say this but i think i like Wales more than Scotland. My ancestors will hate me for that

[@CymruEmergencyResponder]

Mount Snowdon is in Canada.

[@simonwhitlock9189]

Stunning and I have to admire the level of fitness you both have it is certainly more than I could do at my age. Thank you for your efforts and the glorious views till next time stay safe and well.cheers.

[@steve-marsh]

Cheers Simon! Let's just say it was a very relaxed afternoon after this!

[@markstedman4592]

One thing I really noticed in this video was the stunning weather. Never seen it like that anytime that I have been to Wales. Love watching you two, great video.

[@steve-marsh]

I can't believe how lucky we got, I was even asking for the weather gods to turn the temperature down a bit during this trip!

[@moiraedwards57]

Ir Withva . Double dd sounds the and f sounds v. Not bad for a Scot!?

[@stableianF1oracle]

Cycled up Snowdon more times than I’ve changed my underpants. Beautiful views. Glad you had a nice day for it …. Snowdon in cloud is like any other peak when you can’t see anything.

[@johncooper3392]

railway gives people with a disability a chance to enjoy the mountain

[@steve-marsh]

Totally agree!

[@jornspirit]

...really a worthwhile watch... reminds me of many a tour in the lower alps (where I grew up)... the stony paths can be tricky - an ankle is quickly twisted, if you don't pay attention. The views were majestic, and the weather was with you. A bit sad though that they put the final train stop and cafe right on the top... which could be reserved for aah's and ooh's, admiring the peak without hustle-bustle... it could have been placed just out of sight and noise from the peak... however, sigh... and as it is of course, it allows also people with walking difficulties to have the peak experience! 😎 I still find it sometimes hard to believe, that there are guys cycling down!! 🚲😅

[@CosBdA]

I have to say - although I'm 'Anglo-Scots' I grew up in North Wales and learned Welsh at school - but for a non-Welsh-speaker, your pronunciation is really quite good (having watched your other North Wales vids too)! Love your channel - keep up the good work!

[@maxmoore9955]

I'm to old now but enjoyed your hike .I went many years ago Mountain Biking in Wales beautiful Country.

[@margotbehn6287]

Wow, what a wonderful landscape. Thank you for making this trip and video. Although I tried several times to get to Wales I never made it so far. At least your video shows me that I won't be able to make it to the top of Mount Snowdon on foot. Not at my age.😊

[@philtaylor5444]

Really good video I enjoyed watching your journey on such a lovely day.

[@ajollygoodchap]

Three into the series and they are getting better with each one. That was a great ride. Your filming really gives us a sense of the expanse of those moors. I was right as well, after having watched the last sub 2hr video and now this one, you are definitely fitting in more interesting and informative dialogue into these shorter rides. Really enjoyable watching.

[@veronicaroach3667]

Did the climb up/down many years ago - we did different routes up/down, then had to walk right along the lake back to the car - big mistake - but once you've done it it never leaves you - mine was around 1970 ! We 'enjoyed' mistyness on the way down & feared getting lost, but somehow the path was always just visible thank goodness ! Love you Wales - been in the US for many years now so I really enjoyed this adventure with you guys - thank you !!!

[@veronicaroach3667]

No cell phones in those days either to tell the poor guys who stayed behind where we were - they were really scared for us - my husband & my daughter that is, who did not want to go with me & our 3 boys !

[@steve-marsh]

I can believe it! We were tempted with a different route down, but foresaw the walk back to the van and decided against it!

[@keridenner2187]

Wales…. you are beautiful. Thank you for a great video guys.

[@Nook747]

Not just the heat is bad, the air is a lot thinner up there !..WOW...too high for me thanks !! Great video Steve, as always. Can't wait for the follow..

[@geoffh2560]

Thanks for this Steve, a gorgeous day (for us just watching!) - I've only been to the summit by train as my wife is disabled, so it was great to see this path up.

[@kathleenzaffore1560]

Awesome hike! I said WOW aloud several times and felt my heart catch on the sheer and shaley ridges. Thanks for taking us along. I want to strap on boots and head out in the morning. Still ice and snow on ground here but clear and blue forecast tomorrow. I loved seeing the wind cloud streaming over the ridge. Thanks you 2.

[@AnnaWhybro]

Wow! You must have pleased the weather gods ..i have been up Snowdon 5 times and never had such awesome views! You took my favourite route up...a brilliant film, thanks!

I climbed Mount Snowdon in 1975 with a group of American students from RAF Woodbridge HS in Suffolk. We climbed via the Pyg track and stayed at a Youth Hostel in Pen-y-pass I thoroughly enjoyed this video and thank you for sharing this trip, as it brought back so many memories. Can't wait to watch your other videos.

[@gaz1226-j2x]

Hi, good effort especially in that weather. I’ve climbed yr Wyddfa 3times.. Rhyd ddu, Llanberis path and the miners track. Twice it was too dangerous to get up steps to summit due to high winds, snow and ice even though we started the walk in shorts and tee shirts. Third time got to see the views and made the summit. Yaaay,!

[@footfault]

Excellent video, as usual. I felt as if we were right there with you & A. Don't know where you get the energy to explore so often!

[@arthurerickson5162]

Well done!! You’ve climbed your Stairway To Heaven! I’d never have made it without my hiking poles.

Aah, Welsh cakes and Barra brith, they go so well with coffee! I’ve been up Snowdon a couple of times, walking and by train. The scenery on a clear day as you had is certainly epic! Great vid by the way! Cheers👍

Hi, I am a new subscriber to your channel after watch seven videos of yours - I just wanted to say how the beautiful chosen music and the long scenery shots with no dialogue is just perfect, it almost like a meditation and I can’t imagine anyone feeling stressed after watch one - the thee in Wales are the perfect example so keep doing what you do so well 👍🏻🌟🌟🌟

[@JimMcgough-c3g]

Lovely video in weather so uncommon in North Wales. Many decades ago on my first climb up Snowdon, by the dangerous route., the weather closed in so quickly that we dashed down what we thought was the direct route only to end up in Rhydd Dhu, so thank you for showing me what I missed in the clouds!

[@stuartw969]

This was fantastic cinematography!! Thank you so much!!! Beautiful!

[@Sim0nTrains]

Rhyd Ddu Station and the train towards the end, that's part of the Welsh Highland Railway a Narrow Gauge Railway which runs from Caernarfon to Porthmadog Harbour which has some stunning scenery including the Aberglaslyn Pass but some stunning views from the top, awesome video Steve and Alicja and well done getting to the top of Snowdon/Yr Wyddfa, especially during the September Heatwave

[@steve-marsh]

Cheers Simon! We were so happy to see the train at the end, lucky timing!

Excellent footage. About 60 years ago I peddled there on my cycle from Northampton staying at Youth Hostels.. 1/6 or 71/2p as it is now. Been up top 3 times but by train. Well done you two, a joy to take me with you. Thank you

[@jean-paulmasse1091]

Wonderful Steve and Alicja ! Once again, I was with you. We visited this area years ago for the seam trains, Welsh Highland Railway and their Garratt locomotives + Festiniog. Sure, next time we'll climb up to "Yr Wyddfa" summit.

Wow !! What a great video !! I know I will never do that but to be up at the top was amazing !!! Thank you both for bringing us there !!

[@johnallan4826]

Majestic views lovely railway and a oasis of a cafe, never really thought about the contrast, the snowdonian summit as a mid morning snack and back home for lunch for the tourist, or two beautiful walks for the fittest with a snack inbetween, what a stand out plynth for a summit memorial

[@steve-marsh]

It was a wonderful morning John but we collapsed as soon as we got back to the accommodation :D

[@jamesmoore9511]

Wow! and he passed you on the way up carring a bike - that's being in shape. Several times climbing on Mt Rainier (at about 7000 ft) I have been passed by guys running, its really intimidating when I thought I was in good shape.

[@markjones127]

Yep we always put butter on Welsh cakes, same with Bara Brith, we like butter on everything! 🤣Rhyd Ddu path is the perfect path for early September, the trains don't start until 9am so the people passing you probably did a sunrise walk which has been the trend on Instagram for the last few years, you can also descend via the Rangers path and end up back at Rhyd Ddu but it does add 1.5 miles to the walk. I love the railway, but my family are from Llanberis and my uncle used to work on the train so I'm biased, but I took my uncle and my Dad up on the train when they were in their 80's and they absolutely loved it so for me I don't mind one super busy summit with a train just for that, it was actually pretty quiet when you were there, on the very busiest days queues can be over half an hour long for the summit! And one tip I found out the hard way, if holding a camera or walking poles, make sure to put some suntan lotion on the back of your hands too as they burn super fast!

[@craigwilliams4161]

[@rhodsullivan7773]

Loved the follow up to your South and West Wales adventure. Nice touch leaving the Welsh cakes for the summit. They will be on the dry side. They should have butter spread on them.They looked like North Welsh cakes. Some even have jam!!!😮 They make them differently to us south Walians. I make them the old fashioned way on an iron griddle. Flour butter currants sugar, (not too much), and an egg. You did well with your Welsh pronunciation . Glad it wasn't too crowded for you and you had a view. I remember Ben Nevis. Crowded, litter and cloud! Mind you I did quite a few less crowded Munros. Thank you both. Great viewing.

[@johndgn]

Thanks to both of you, not done Snowdon yet but this looks like a superb route, CMD route up Ben Nevis is similarly much quieter than the tourist path if you've not done..

Great vi. I've never done the Rhyd ddu route despite staying in the youth hostel there many times as a kid. Been up 3 routes from Pen y Pass and the railway path from Llanberis. I've come down the ridge you went up but into the saddle between Uy Wydfa and Yr Aran, then down onto the road you stayed on. I'll give this route a go some time.

[@DavidRichards-z2k]

So glad you had the weather during your visit my my lovely country, I’ve been to your equally lovely country the first while on a mountain leader’s course while in the Army & many many times more on my motorbike. Wales is like a mini Scotland, now Scotland missed a trick! Since way back the Welsh tourist board have ran with the tag line Come To Wales “The Big Country”now your country truly is a big country & until anyone’s visited the place they’ll never know, not only is it big in land mass, but the mountains, lakes & the open spaces are magnificent too & like Wales if you get the weather then it’s a bonus especially if you’re on a bike. Not walked that path on Snowdon, I tend to take first timers up the 3 .1/2 mile Pyg Track, short & sharp but it does get busy, the last time I took a group the weather was bad & there was still a 30min wait just to go up those last few steps to the pinnacle. Did you nip into my Old Regiments ( Royal Welch Fusiliers)free museum while you were in Caernarfon castle? And, yes Welsh cakes are so much better with a touch of butter . Diolch yn fawr iawn (thank you very much) for showing everyone so much our country in an awesome way your filming & interactions have been on the ball. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

About ten years ago, when we lived in North Wales, we walked up Yr Wyddfa with my daughter who is completely blind!! We took the Llanberris Path because we needed a wide route and she did so amazingly well despite blisters she managed all the way up and all the way down which, I agree, was really hard. If I'm honest, it wasn't easy for me either having to guide her, fortunately my partner helped out there. This brought back some 'interesting' memories though!! 😆 Thanks for a great video.

[@donaldtrumpton6252]

If you walk from the other side of the mountain the accent is only 2.5 hours although not in the heat. The PYG track is good as you start from Pen y Gent. The miners track is ok but a climb at the end, tough going. The Watkin path is an easy one but LONG. If I remember correctly four hours. The Llanberis path is the busy one and hard on the feet. I can’t eat welsh cakes without butter. Under here three hours is a good time, you should never rush. I have been on the top able to see your have out stretched but also when the air has been crystal clear. You can see for miles.

[@jonclassical2024]

Wow...Cheers! (I would have been the guy in the village pub cheering you's on!)
