More about this scene

This open-topped car laden with tourists has just crawled up the narrow, zig-zag road to the top of the pass. At a height of 1169 ft, this is one of the highest passes in north Wales accessible by road. Spectacular views of the Snowdon and Glyder mountains rewarded visitors at the top on a clear day. The Gorphwysfa Hotel offered refreshments.
