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

LATEST..........
Arriva withdrawn their weekday connecting "88" services
from/to Caernarfon (after Saturday 22nd September)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Gwynfor are providing a much reduced replacement weekday service
- as shown below

DON'T GET CAUGHT OUT BY THE REVISED
- OFTEN EARLIER - CONNECTIONS from CAERNARFON !!!
most of which are NOT yet on any official websites
and YES it really does show it takes "zero" minutes to
divert via Brynrefail and again "zero" minutes between Joe Brown
and the Interchange at Llanberis --- meaning in practice there
will always be either an early departure from Joe Brown
or a late arrival at the Interchange !!!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Sundays - "S2" Sherpa services and connections remain unaltered
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Please bookmark and re-visit this page nearer the time
to see if any changes affect your proposed connecting journey

This "unofficial" website attempts to show what is still available
and to encourage greater use includes some suggested
"trips round Snowdonia - without your car"

10.00 - Sherpa journey $ - these "S2" Sherpas continue to Llanrwst arrive 0838 and 1538 (via Llanrwst School) on local School Days only * - the destination indicator on the front of this Sherpa from may display "Llanberis" "Betws-y-Coed" or "Llanrwst" and the route number "S2" or "88" (sometimes changing en-route)
# - the destination indicator on the front of this Sherpa from may display "Beddgelert" or "Pen-y-Pass" (sometimes changing en-route) - but in all cases there is only one bus so DON'T GET LEFT BEHIND

LSch - local (Llanrwst) School Days only S+LSH - Saturdays also during local (Llanrwst) School Holidays

@ - BEWARE whilst in theory it is possible to catch the earlier 0950 "X19" at Betws-y-Coed (retimed from 1005) - as it is less than 5 minutes it is NO LONGER recognised as a connection by the TravelineCymru "Journey Planner,"
but if you are QUICK and do make it, you will get to Llandudno much earlier - unfortunately this is yet another case of 'failed' integrated timetable planning

- if this causes you inconvenience or additional costs, write/phone/email both the operator (Llew Jones - 01492 640 320) and Conwy CC and ask them to retime the 0950 "X19" journey slightly later to RELIABLY connect

@@ - BEWARE whilst in theory it is possible to catch the earlier 0900 "S2" Sherp at Llanberis - as this journey departs in the middle of the rush-hour, it is liable to be delayed in Caernarfon especially on Mondays to Fridays
- unfortunately this is yet another case of 'failed' integrated timetable planning

- if this causes you inconvenience or additional costs, write/phone(01248 722 694)/email both the operator (Gwynfor) and Gwynedd CC and ask them to make this a RELIABLE connect

% - if the "S2" arrives Betws-y-Coed slightly early, it is often possible to catch the earlier 1510 "X19" much faster journey to Llandudno at Betws-y-Coed, as it often runs late - unfortunately this is yet another case of 'failed' integrated timetable planning

- if this causes you inconvenience or additional costs, write/phone/email both the operator (Llew Jones - 01492 640 320) and Conwy CC and ask them to retime the 1510 "X19" journey slightly later to RELIABLY connect
