SUMMARY OF SNOWDON SHERPA NETWORK - SUMMER 2023
STOP PRESS.....
The new extension of the "S4" to Black Rock Sands was
WITHDRAWN  'on the first day'
due to the very narrow access road leading to the beach
(alao cars were badly parked stopping larger vehicles passing)

The "S4" now terminates at/returns from the "bus turning circle" at the west end of Morfa Bychan
- which is a short walk to Black Rock Sands
UPDATE.....
It has now been confirmed the additional Sunday "T10" TrawsCymru journeys between Betws-y-Coed and Bangor via the Ogwen Pass - which were SUSPENDED at the end of October 2022 - WIll be reinstated for the WHOLE of the summer - see here for the details
    The level of "S1" Sherpa journeys via Llanberis and Pen-y-Pass is again increased to hourly for the summer

    Most "S2" Sherpa journeys from Bangor to Llanberis are extended to Pen-y-Pass for the summer giving a basic half-hourly service between Llanberis and Pen-y-Pass along the central "core" section of the Llanberis Pass (which also serves the large "Park and Ride" car park at Nant Peris)

    The level of "S3" Sherpa journeys along the western side of Snowdon is again increased to hourly

    Most connecting "S4" Sherpas from Pen-y-Pass to Beddgelert/Porthmadog are extended to Morfa Bychan
    5 journeys each way operate onlocal School Days as in 2022.....
    .....BUT NEW for 2023 the level of service is increased to hourly at weekends (also weekdays during School Holidays)

    Public Holiday dates are listed at the top of each table and a Sunday service will again operate on these days

    So far,   no further changes have been anounced for the Conwy Valley "19" or the Ogwen Valley "T10"
(for Tryfan) connecting journeys........
........these will be updated on THIS website if any changes are announced - watch this space for details!

The pages on this website are now in the process of being updated
Any page dated before 20th March should be regarded as "STILL TO BE UPDATED"

  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

    REMEMBER..........
    Due to so many last-minute changes to the various services in the area,  unfortunately many official websites (including the TravelineCymru "Journey Planner") continue to show journeys which have either been "CHANGED" or sometimes even "WITHDRAWN"
    Where known,  these are also included below as a warning - to help avoid you being caught out !!!


    Please bookmark and revisit nearer the time to check if there have been any further known changes since your last visit to this page

    Journeys shown on this website with a "strike through" line are still operating,  BUT it is NO LONGER possible to get a (bus) connection back to the start location of the page - eg
 1234 

    Throughout Snowdonia there are unfortunately numerous cases of "sub-standard" connections which are NOT recognised by the TravelineCymru "Journey Planner"
(as they are less than 5 minutes) - eg
11.01 11.00
or
11.05 11.01
    Although this website strongly adviises you NOT to 'chance' them..........
..........they are included to draw your attention to the fact that if everything is 'spot on time' and you are "very quick" - it can sometimes get you to your destination considerably earlier



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