About the trail

Walk Snowdonia and Snowdon on a self-guided holiday.

Based on the excellent Snowdonia Slate Trail, the Snowdon Round has been developed by Contours Holidays to give keen walkers the chance to explore the incredible scenery of the Snowdonia National Park in Wales, also known as Eryri. The trail features an exhilarating mixture of terrain – including imposing mountains, expansive lakes and colourful woodlands – with impressive and ever-changing views across the diverse Welsh landscape from start to finish.

The standard Snowdon Round route skirts around the foot of Snowdon, the highest mountain in Wales, officially renamed Yr Wyddfa, while those with a real taste for adventure can opt for the Mountain Route and conquer the summit!

We have partnered with the Snowdonia Slate Trail Trust so that when you book a Contours Holiday along the Snowdon Round, 50% of the cost of your guidebook is given back to fund the maintenance of this spectacular route.

“Accommodation all excellent. Lovely break overall.”
Mrs Boyd, UK
“I enjoyed this outing immensely. I want to add a few more comments about my recent trip to Snowdonia. First, the GPS track provided by Contours was invaluable. Second, I appreciate the efforts of whoever highlighted the entire route on the provided OS maps. That was also quite helpful. Thanks! I would (and will) recommend this outing to others without reservation. I’ve booked trips with many different companies. This is my third trip with Contours. They are among the best in my experience.”
