Snowdon Sherpa

The Snowdon Sherpa is a unique bus service that travels around the foot of Snowdon, creating a valuable link between the six main routes that travel up Snowdon, as well as the main car parks, villages and tourist attractions in the area. 

It is an ideal service for walkers or climbers who intend to start their journey from one point and finish at another, or indeed for anyone who wish to travel around Snowdonia and leave the car at home.

All journeys are operated by Low Floor buses with wheelchair space and ramp to ensure that the stops provided with raised kerbs are served by accessible vehicles.
