The Snowdonia Slate Trail is a waymarked trail that runs for 83 miles (134 km) from Bangor on the North Wales coast, making a circuit through the heart of Snowdonia. It visits welcoming villages with a choice of accommodation and refreshments. The walking is varied, from easy valleys to mountain passes, from wild moorland to river gorges. Highlights include the National Slate Museum of Wales, stunning views of Snowdon and abandoned slate villages high in the hills. The trail also passes the Penrhyn quarry with its impressive galleries of slate crossed by the longest, fastest zip-wire in Europe.
