Snowdonia, North Wales, UK

Think of Wales, and you’ll likely think of Snowdonia, the beautiful range of mountains and hills located in the county of Gwynedd. Consisting of 14 majestic peaks over 3,000 feet high – the most famous being the 3,546-foot Snowdon, the summit of which is accessible by train – Snowdonia can be seen as far away as Porthmadog on the west coast. When you’re here, it’s easy to see why the area has featured so heavily in local legends, including those based around King Arthur, who locals will insist was Welsh.
