Llanberis Lake Railway & Welsh Highland Railway
We board our carriage for a train trip on the Llanberis Lake Railway. This narrow gauge heritage line runs through Padarn Country Park and along the shore of Lake Padarn, passing thirteenth century Dolbadarn Castle and mighty Mount Snowdon. Later we head to Caernarfon castle walls where we board our heritage train on the Welsh Highland Railway. This spectacular twenty-five-mile trip climbs from sea-level to over six hundred feet before zigzagging down the steep hillside to reach Beddgelert then through the Aberglaslyn Pass to Porthmadog.
Snowdon Mountain Railway & Ffestiniog Railway
Look forward to following in the footsteps of millions of visitors with an unforgettable heritage railway trip from picturesque Llanberis Station, crossing overpasses and up through the clouds to the summit of Mount Snowdon on this spectacular round trip. As your train trundles its way along the tracks, you can enjoy dramatic views of waterfalls and gorges, viaducts and abandoned farms, chapel ruins and medieval settlements. Later we head to Blaenau Ffestiniog to board our carriage for a sightseeing trip through the beautiful Vale of Ffestiniog to Porthmadog for free time.
Llandudno
Llandudno promises all the fun of the seaside with its sandy beach, pleasure pier, and an esplanade with Punch & Judy shows. The resort is edged by Great Orme, a limestone headland and you can head to Victoria Station to catch the tramway up to the summit or stroll to Happy Valley Gardens and hop on a cable car to ascend the 679 feet. Board a vintage bus for a trip around the coast, walk through tunnels that were mined over 3500 years ago at Great Orme Mines, or discover how life was during World War II at the Home Front Experience.
