Did this path on Saturday as a first time climber with no experience.. what a challenge but well worth it in the end.. great video

Yours is the second video I've seen covering this walk. On both occasions both have referred to it as the WATKINS Path. It is, in fact The WATKIN Path, named after Sir Edward Watkin. Having climbed it many times, the first time in 1960, apart from Crib Goch, it's my favourite path to Snowdon. I was fortunate to climb in a time before widespread erosion when the paths were lightly worn by the boots of not so many walkers.

well done..brilliant.thank you

Really enjoyed the video, I've never done the watkin path. Looks pretty amazing. Love the rendition of Bruce Springstien. Keep up the good work. 👍

I’m going to Snowden next week but taking the easiest way of all, the train! At 67 I think I know my limits. Thank you for taking us with you on your adventure.

Did the Watkins for the first time this weekend. Hard going, probably tougher than I'd expected, but very satisfying when completed. Came down via the South Ridge which I'd reccomend.

Thank you for making this video for us... I was planning to go at the top and was thinking to take this route but now after watching your video and your advise I have changed my mind..!!

Best vid I’ve seen on the Watkin path. Great camera work. Well done 🤘🏼 Hopefully doing it next month 🤞🏼

Really nice video of your day on the Watkin path, its a really hard pull in places, but worth the effort. I always like the perspective from the bwlch looking across Lliwedd, so steep. I'm sure you had a well deserved pint back at base camp. Diolch.

Top video Harry; having just done this path; totally relate to that last scree path before the steps. Hard going but with it. Great narration and travel tips. Even a tune from The Boss. Liked and subbbed. ATB Mark.

Done this yesterday in pouring rain and gale force wind. Was one hell of an experience and scary at times

Stunning video! You've captured the atmosphere of the WATKIN PATH to the summit of SNOWDON (or, more accurately YR WYDDFA) beautifully and without the irritatingly intrusive 'music' of so many videos.

Hi Harry, really enjoyed your video. Congrats on a great climb, you did really well.

Fantastic video. Did the pyg track up and miners down last week, you've inspired me to do the watkin next 👊

Fabulous photography .... done the pyg up and miners down, but will be taking Watkins for the waterfall views soon. 👌

Nice, thanks!

Love seeing these routes being done, I am more of a novice hiker so stuck to Pyg up Miners down. Gonna give Llanberis a go at some point. Hope youre enjoying up hill adventures now we are back in the Summer months 😊

Try the ranger path if you're looking for an easier route up. Great views over to Mynydd Mawr and the Nantlle Ridge and a less steep path up to the summit of Snowdon. The Rhyd Ddu path is also a great way up. Enjoyed your video btw

That was a good video, I'm up on Mt Snowdon in a month's time , I was going to take the Watkins Path but now I'm well into my 60's I think I'll go for the more touristy route.

That looked gruelling….but worth it! Well done mate. 🤙🏼

Liked the video, nice camera work. If the Watkin path is scary you should see Crib Goch on the other side !

Nice video. Is the path any clearer now? Thinking of going saturday? Thanks.

Well, the summit is not quite the top ;) and it never took 5 mins on the last portion to get to where you were said was the top. still only 5 more mins from the building to the top ;) Well done, I did it a few weeks ago and it was a great walk!

Da iawn Harry! The Watkin Path flatters to decieve. Beautiful, incredible views, idyllic... Then it gets tough, then it gets tougher... Making the Summit feel like a real achievement. As it obviously felt for you. Diolch

Basically, I hiked up solo snowdon, never done it before by myself on the 2n Jan. And thats what I found, no clear path and the incline is insane, it was testing my mental ability and I really struggled. I took a osmond route up. I only made it to clawdd Coch 931m - because the icy ridge and fog was in and my energy didnt change the last 100m elevation. This relieves me to see that I wasnt insane and its crazy! haha dont recommend this route for the first time going up snowdon and your an inexperienced hiker. I started my hike 8:30am finsihed at 3pm

How much was ( and is ) breathing, an issue at this altitude ??? How much of an issue might it be for a physically fit person who hasn't been at such an altitude ??? Thanks.

Is it worth it.....yep

I wouldn't have said the Watkin Path was the hardest

Imagine being the brickies etc who put that building there. Maybe they got dropped off by helicopter, as imagine that work after a walk up and then the walk down.
