The best places to visit

Climbing Mount Snowdon is one of the top adventures Wales has to offer!  At 1,085 meters, Mount Snowdon is the tallest mountain in Wales (and taller than anything in England as well — only Scotland has higher peaks!), and climbing it is a rite of passage for adrenaline junkies in the UK.
