Snowdonia National Park
About Snowdonia National Park
Snowdonia, or Eryri, is a mountainous region and national park in North Wales. It contains all 15 mountains in Wales over 3000 feet high, including the country's highest, Snowdon, which is 1,085 metres (3,560 ft) tall. These peaks are all part of the Snowdon, Glyderau, and Carneddau ranges in the north of the region. The lower Moelwynion and Moel Hebog ranges lie immediately to the south.

There is a power station buried inside a Welsh mountain that's only turned on during TV advert breaks. It's called Dinnerwig Power Station. It's in North Wales in Snowdonia National Park, and it's a hydroelectric power station — the fastest in the world. It takes 12 seconds to produce enough power to power about 600,000 kettles.
