Hi done the ride the other day ive not done anything like it before as iam totally new to new to mountain riding.I really enjoyed it .It got a bit challenging the final bit on the snodon ranger path is a lot of fun with single track and switchbacks.It well worth having ago.

Agrred. the Rangers path is quite technical in places. The Bwlch Maesgwm path is great fun, lovely and flowing with nice little kickers over nearly all the drainage ditches.

Any idea of the total distance for the loop?
i.e. Llanberis Path to Snowdon summit, down via the Rangers Path, then back to Llanberis via the Bwlch Maesgwm bridleway.

Up snowdon from llanberis. Down rangers path, and bk 2 llanberis down maesgwm. Don t worry bout fitness coz im totally un fit at the moment. Really slow pace up. All depending on the weather as usual!! If snowdon s out and it s not totally chucking it possibly head 2 the quarry.
