Series 2: 13. Mike’s Walk, Snowdonia Lakes



Forty-year-old police officer Mike from Rhyl is in charge of the third hike.\n\nHis walk starts at the famous Pen-y-Pass. He leads the group up the Miner’s Track and past the picturesque lakes of Llyn Teyrn and Llyn Llydaw as they head over to the ruined copper mine buildings of Britannia Copper Mine. They then climb up the steps to the third and final lake, Glaslyn, to catch a glimpse of the Snowdon (Yr Wyddfa) itself.\n\nHe also reveals a pivotal moment in his life that changed everything and led him into his current profession. But will he win the others over, or will the rain come and stop play for this competitor?
