Dear followers and subscribers I would like to begin this blog post by saying a massive thank you for following Crashpad, for all the reviews, the likes, shares, comments and to those that choose to make Crashpad Lodges their basecamp to explore Snowdon since we opened for business in 2014. Here’s a few of our guests that came to stay in 2019 and the picture of the most filled outdoor drinks cooler of the year, good effort!

Almost every penny made from opening our doors back in 2014 we have invested back into Yr Helfa, the building from where we run Crashpad Lodges. Yr Helfa translates from Welsh to English as “The Gathering” which is exactly what Yr Helfa provides, group accommodation close to Snowdon in the village of Llanberis for friends, ,families and groups to gather.  Because of your business we have been able to restore Yr Helfa and welcome it into 2020 as an exciting unique place for adventure. So thank you and if Yr Helfa could thank

Last week it was announced in The Times newspaper that according to users of Ordnance Survey’s app mapping system, OS Maps, the busiest 1km2 grid square in Great Britain is to the summit of Yr Wyddfa (Snowdon). At at peak times it certainly does get busy, from Crashpad Lodges you can see a colourful rainbow line of walkers making their way up to wales’ highest peak during the day.  When the sunset walkers return back down you can witness the most wonderful lines of lights as the many head torches light the way down.
