Snowdon Mountain Railway

Your ticket to the top of the world

Snowdon Mountain Railway enables visitors to travel in comfort and style to the summit of Mount Snowdon, the highest mountain in Wales and England.

• Located in North Wales, the Snowdon Mountain Railway is the UK’s only public rack and pinion railway with diesel and heritage steam travel options.
• Beginning at Llanberis station, the route passes through woodland and crosses rivers before beginning the 3,560ft ascent to the peak.
• On reaching the summit, visitors have a 30-minute stay at the dynamic visitor centre – ‘Hafod Eryri’ – where they can grab a bite to eat and enjoy captivating panoramic views.
• Hafod Eryri is a uniquely designed, RIBA award-winning granite structure, offering spectacular views from the wall of glass at its front. It acts as a terminus for the railway, providing refreshment and giving visitors a chance to learn about the fascinating history of the mountain.
