B E W A R E ....................... !!! Car Parking in Snowdonia is very limited and can be expensive if a space can be found The alternative is to leave your car behind and use the Snowdon Sherpa Bus network IMPORTANT.......... Gwynfor has made some minor changes to the times of their connecting "88" weekday service from and back to Caernarfon The opportunity has also been taken to "plug" the former lunchtime "two hour gap" between journeys This information can be confirmed from the Gwynedd CC website..... but so far,  details are NOT on any other official website Please bookmark and re-visit this page in case there have been any further changes This "unofficial" website attempts to show what is still available and to encourage greater use includes some suggested "trips round Snowdonia - without your car"
