The Llanberis Mountain Rescue Team is made up entirely of volunteers who live close to Snowdon.

Guides, Instructors, Teachers, Plumbers, Park Wardens, Builders, Businessmen. All and more can be found in the team. They are all skilled and experienced mountaineers.

Turning out in all weathers, day or night, 365 days a year, they share a common purpose. To help anyone who is in trouble on the hills.

The Rescue team is based in Llanberis, a busy village nestled at the foot of Snowdon.

The area covered by the team includes Snowdon and the horseshoe, the south side of the Glyder range and the north west side of Moel Siabod.

This area boasts some of
the finest walking and mountaineering to be found anywhere in Wales and the UK.

Snowdon, the highest mountain in Wales, is probably the busiest mountain in Britain. Many of the visitors to Wales are determined to walk or climb to the summit.

The Llanberis Pass and the big cliffs of Clogwyn du'r Arddu and Lliwedd give the area one of the highest concentrations of quality rock climbing anywhere and attracts climbers from all over the world.

In a hard winter some of the hardest ice climbing in Britain is here.

The sheer volume of visitors coming to Snowdon makes the Llanberis Rescue Team one of the busiest in the country.
