alternatively try the

IGNORE the winter 2017-2018 version of the "S2" as it is INCORRECT
- it actually links
to the old winter 2015-2016 timetable which means they show some journeys to depart after the time they will
really leave !
This can be confirmed from the official Council printed 2017 Sherpa leaflet
|
No printed copies
the official public transport website
PLEASE NOTE
This official website has now been further updated to shown the correct times for all
the "Sherpa" summer timetables and the connecting "19" service
If you have previously saved a copy of their version of the timteables make sure you have
saved the correct one - if in doubt DELETE it and start again

or the official
|
IGNORE the official "Express Motors" website as it has
not been updated since April 2016 - following
a change of management
Many timetables including the
Sherpas are completely out of date !!!
Instead, use this website and confirm any information from either the
Conwy CC or the Gwynedd CC websites
All summer 2017 Sherpas and winter "S2" Sherpa timetables can also be confirmed from the official
Council printed 2017 Sherpa leaflet

This company operates the Sunday "S97" Sherpas
also some connecting journeys
PLEASE NOTE
The alternative weekday late-evening return services from Bangor to Llandudno at 1915, 2015,
2115 and 2230 are through "5C-5"
journeys from Caernarfon at 1845, 1945, 2045 and 2145
It is NOT NECESSARY to catch an earlier "5C" journey from Caernarfon and hang around in the
cold at Bangor for half-an-hour as incorrectly shown on their 'journey planner'
The 2230 evening return service from Bangor to Llandudno starts from Caernarfon at 2145,
but now stands for 16 minutes at Bangor, it so is now shown as a connection........
.......BUT in consequence it no longer connects at Conwy for Llanrwst/Betws-y-Coed (servie 19),
at Llandudno Junction station for Mochdre (service 13) or at Craig-y-Don for Colwyn Bay/Rhyl (service 12)
(see the printed leaflet for confirmation)

This company operates the
limited weekday "6B" service along the Ogwen Valley
also some connecting journeys along the Conwy Valley
IMPORTANT
Their website has at last been updated to include their revised "70" connecting services
from and back to Corwen following the collapse of GHA last summer
UNFORTUNATELY the top table ONLY OPERATES ON Tuesdays (NOT ALL WEEK)
|
BEWARE
The morning outward "6B" journey along the Ogwen Valley (for Tyfan)
is shown on their website to start from Llanrwst at 06.32
As it is basically a 'postioning' run to for a National Express journey from Bangor - it is liable to be changed
at short notice
(is the ONLY northbound Ogwen Valley journey of the day during the winter or mid-week in the summer) |

although this company no longer operates connecting

.....but do check any of the above have been fully updated, as some are considerably old !!!!

This website attempts to show what services are currently available
along with those planned for future periods as soon as the information has been announced
In particular it highlights known errors in official publications
in order the help avoid visitors being "caught out" !
It contains composite timetables of connecting services on a cross-Snowdonia route basis
including where a change of bus is necessary --- hopefully it will help you plan your days out
It also includes some suggested "trips round Snowdonia - without your car"
from locations within Snowdonia itself
as well as some of which commence from the North Wales Coast resorts by conecting bus or train
(thus enabling you to leave the car behind and avoid car parking fees !!!)
