UK: The beauty of Snowdon Mountain

This is the view from the lake

The mountain from different view

As you can see the path

This is my post again about Snowdon mountain. One of my favorite mountains. I just like it when summer is there because the view changed completely. Last summer this is one of the mountain i've climbed. Wow!!! and one of the longest routes but worth it really. Really fantastic view and on top of the mountain there was a restaurant where you can have your meal or lunch. From the top of the mountain you can see so many different mountains which i wished i could climb that time. Now' it's summer again and i hope to climb Ben Nevis mountain next week which is the highest mountain in the UK. At the moment i am still doing my 10KM running in average everyday for my preparation. I have done a lot actually but i just need to improve my time.

Summer Snowdon Mountain in England

Long route really
Beautiful lake with blue water
Really love this mountain
Isn't it beautiful?
Summer is the best time to visit UK or maybe many could countries but never in winter. I mean winter gonna be terrible because it's gonna be too cold. UNLESS you are kind of homely person. A guy like me i like outdoor activities and i like to go out and do sport. Despite of my very busy daily life (on holiday at the moment), i think i always try to find my time to climb a mountain. Last summer (and it's summer again in the UK at the moment), i managed to climb Snowdon mountain which is the highest mountain the England. I must say that this mountain has spectacular view from the top and you can see the valley as well. Probably this mountain is one of my favorite mountains that i ever climbed so far.

But one thing i'm not so keen is too many climbers. But that day it wasn't that many well..actually there were at least 100 climbers that time. Still many!!!! LOL!

The beauty of Snowdon Mountain


the view from the lake


the view from on of the paths


Very beautiful

the path on the lake


I say Am-a-zing

Last two weeks, I went to this beautiful mountain and actually the third mountain I’ve climbed in the UK. I was fed up with the fucking horrible winter this year and the beautiful summer in the UK really makes me happy. That is why I’m enjoying the hot summer at the moment. After Cader Idris and Rhinog Fawr mountains we decided to try the highest mountain in England and Wales. I should give a try the highest mountain in the UK but I just didn’t have enough time for it because I have to go back to Malaysia next week. This means I have a few days to go before off to Malaysia. I miss my family and the beaches in Malaysia. Ha..ha..ha..ha..and I can’t wait to enjoy myself in Sabah and the food there.

Anyway, Snowdon is very beautiful mountain and out of a few mountains I’ve climbed so far in my life this is the most beautiful mountain. The mountain has spectacular view, mountains and lakes also waterfall. For those who want to give a try, you are recommended to take your camera because the view was really beautiful. It’s worth to climb really....test your fitness!

Three mountains in less than 2 weeks


Highest mountain in England and Wales. Snowdon mountain


Rhinog Fawr mountain..the most difficult path among those 3 mountains


Cader Idris Mountain...very nice view

Huh..what a tiring week for me. I have just got back from London (from Wales to London) yesterday after my tiring week but I really enjoyed it very much. In less than 2 weeks I claimed three mountains in the UK, 12 KM forest hiking and the last one was 18KM east coast hiking. All those activities have been done in Wales. I love Wales very much because this bloody country is beautiful and i like the hills, mountains and the bloody beaches. Hahahahaha...

The first mountain was Cader Idris Mountain (probably 850m high and about 20KM the track/path) and really beautiful. The spectacular scenery made me feel like in heaven. Loved it very much. What can I say? If think you are fit enough, then try this mountain. Second Mountain was Rhinog Fawr Mountain (720m high and about 16KM the track/path) and the most difficult track among the three mountains. Not as high as the other but the difficulty level was fantastic, that's why only I and friends climbed the mountain.

Followed by the next mountain was Snowdon Mountain (1100m high) which is the highest mountain in the England and Wales. In the terms of difficulty level, it was not very difficult because but the path was 28KM and it was really exhausting. So many climbers that time and the peak of the mountain was packed with people from different countries all over the world.



12KM forest hiking

18KM east coast hiking

After the three mountains we decided to go for 12 KM walk in the forest called Hafod forest and 18KM walk along the Aberswyth's east coast. Bloody tiring but hell on earth i did enjoy myself.

p/s: Just had my 5KM jogging this morning. Huh...going to watch football again today.

I am tired and I am hungry


Need this to energise myself


Going to have fish and chips tonight

Have you ever been so tired and you just don't want to do anything but eat and go to sleep? Yeah...if you had this kind of situation of experience then you know exactly what i feel at the moment. Huhuhu...I feel so tired after my 28KM track walking to climb the mountain and yesterday was another 12 KM hiking. The day before yesterday was about 15KM walking climbing the other mountain. I feel so exausted now. What's tommrrow? I don't know but if i not mistaken we going to have about 10 KM hiking. Well, only if the weather is good...otherwise we have to forget it. I mean just stay in this little room which i hate very much. I don't like being an indoor guy. Tonight i really fancy a bath and soak myself for about couple of hours. Just want to get refresh after a long and tiring day.

Three days in a row i have been doing extreme activities and now i feel exausted. I need Isotonic drinks..so i bought about 3 bottles when we were passing by the shop from the mountain. Huh!!! Bloody hell I need a bar of chocolate as well just to energise my exausted body. So i bought a bar of chocolate as well. There you go....I had it and i feel a bit better but i still need to eat for my dinner. Otherwise i will be dead soon. Hahahahaha.....

OK..ok..i better go now as am so tired and need to go to bed very soon (of course after my dinner)..

P/s: Happy fathers' day and i love you papa xxx
