Default Visiting Llanberis 9 10 June

Will be visiting for the weekend, is the area any good for Scoobying? Is there a local meet or anything?

I am being made to walk up the hill on Saturday, but will have Saturday evening and Sunday free.

I AGREE some of the best roads ANYWHERE, just head south from llanberris

get yourself a decent atlas and away you go

Just stick to the yellow roads and stay off the red and you'll have a ball

make sure you know where the Shell garages are, its soooooo easy to go through 2 tanks of fuel in a day believe me i know

theres a shell garage 15minutes away. Route Planner (GB) : Maps and directions - The AA
or if you want to go down towards porthmadog and have fun at black rock sands like this fella YouTube - Black Rock. and theres a shell garage at porthmadog just head for penrhyndeudrath and just before you exit porthmadog the shell garage is on your left Route Planner (GB) : Maps and directions - The AA. hope links work properly
