- Pen yr Ole Wen... is this the most underestimated peak of Snowdonia National Park here in North Wales? I would argue so. From the roadside this peak (which is the 7th highest in the park) looks fairly innocent. Llyn Ogwen lies below while Pen yr Ole Wen looks like a rather easy climb in the background. But, as I experienced, this wasn't exaxctly the case ⛰️💪🏼
I began from the most western point of Llyn Ogwen and clambered up the side of the peak. From the get go the hike was pretty tough and fairly unobvious in places.
This hike really surprised me in all sorts of ways, and all for the good. The thing I loved the most was the fact that I got to see my favourite peak (Tryfan) and other nearby peaks from a whole new perspective. Oh, and I got to hang out with some awesome sheep's 🐑🐑🐑
So, please, come and join me for this epic hike deep within Snowdonia NP, my homeland 🏴❤️

Great video! We are doing this hike in a couple of days and wanted to know what did you put up on your map? We just don’t want to go wrong and get stranded!
Hi there, glad to hear you're about to do this hike! It's great yet more challenging than you'd imagine. I used the OS map app but I'm sure there are others you can use. Enjoy! 😎
I'm a local fell runner and in running circles it's held in very high esteem and known as one of the two most brutal ascents in the area, the other being Elidir Fawr from Nant Peris, another route up I enjoy is Braich Ty Du from Bethesda which is a longer and more gentle approach, but great for very busy days as parking is much better in Bethesda
Looks like a lovely hike! Snowdonia is beautiful. Hope your friend is OK xx
It's a lovely hike! And thanks for asking about my friend, she's all fine and dandy 😎
Great video dude. Pen Yr Ole Wen is one hike I've never got around to doing. Seeing this has put it on my list. I'm just down the road from you in the Conwy valley! Love your videos, keep them coming. Diolch!
Hey mate! Thanks for watching and I'm glad you enjoy the videos! Big love from one valley boy to another ✌🏼🏴😁
Was there last weekend. Mega busy at the parking next to the shop but managed to get a space. Myself and a friend went right up the middle looking from the lake, was mental.
I'm glad you enjoyed the mountains buddy! There's some great views to be had 😎🏴
