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

Mountain guides and instructors, teachers, plumbers, doctors, park wardens, builders, nuclear engineers and business consultants - all and more can be found in the team. All are 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 Nant Peris (the old Llanberis), a village nestled at the foot of Snowdon.
