Snowdonia
Snowdonia is a region of north Wales and a national park, of 838 square miles (2,170 km˛) in area. It was the first to be designated of the three National Parks in Wales, in 1951. Today the word Snowdonia is largely synonymous with the Snowdonia National Park, although prior to the designation of the boundaries of the National Park, the term Snowdonia was generally used to refer to a smaller area, namely the more mountainous and northern areas closer to Snowdon itself. |
