PLACES TO

VISIT IN
WALES

TEN IN ONE :D
There are ten attractions all included in the one entry ticket, and
there is plenty to see and do for all ages.
The 3 different caves Dan-yr-Ogof, Cathedral Cave and Bone
Cave each offer a unique underground experience. In Dan-yrOgof you walk through the beautifully decorated passageways for
just under 1 kilometre; in Cathedral Cave you walk through its
enormous caverns, carved out millions of years ago, and at the
end of this cave experience the excitement of walking behind the
40 feet high waterfalls that cascade around you in the Dome of St
Pauls, an atmospheric end to a truly wonderful cave; and in
Bone Cave learn why 42 human skeletons were buried here, and
how our ancestors used caves all those years ago.

On site we also have one of the worlds largest collections of lifesized dinosaur models, ranging from the ever popular
Tyrannosaurus Rex and Brachiosaurs, to the lesser-known
Tsintaosaurus. There are over 200 models here can you find
your favourite dinosaur?
The Shire Horse Centre offers the excitement of the 2 covered
childrens play areas, the farm yard area, and why not make
friends with the gentle giants the Shire horses who are waiting
to say hello.

Spanning three centuries our Railway is acutely aware of our legacy. Recently new carriages
have been built and commissioned to ensure that visitors to North Wales can continue to enjoy
our unique Mountain Railway experience for many years to come.
Pushed by one of our Hunslet Engine Company diesel locomotives (1985) our new carriages
(in service 2013) seat 74 passengers, 10 per compartment. Departures leave Llanberis every
day March to October on the hour and on the half hour. Journey time to the summit is one hour
with a 30 minute stop over at the peak.
The Snowdon Lily is built on the original chassis and bogey from the original carriage of 1896.
The unique original nature of our railway means that the visitor of today will experience exactly
what our ancestors did back in 1896 and see for themselves how beautiful the mountain is as
they journey through the clouds to Yr Wyddfa, Snowdon.
Pushed by one of our three working steam locomotives from 1896, the Snowdon Lily is an
accurate re-construction of one of our original Snowdon Mountain Tramroad & Hotels Co Ltd
1896 observation carriages. Seating only 34 passengers with a central aisle, in twos and fours,
we urge passengers who prefer a little more room to book their trip on the Snowdon Lily.
Departures leave Llanberis three times per day, May to September and pre-booking is advised
to avoid disappointment. Journey time to the summit is one hour with a 30 minute stop over at
the peak.
