Snowdonia wouldn't be called the UK's adventure capital for no reason. This mountainous region is located in northwestern Wales with the best things to offer for thrill-seekers across the UK and beyond. Many people book accommodation in Snowdonia National Park to spend days exploring the area. And if you're headed to this region, here are 11 of the best things you shouldn't miss doing.

Climb the highest peak in Wales. Mount Snowdon stands mighty and proud at 1,085 metres. Its hikes are challenging, but the views make the sweat all worthwhile once you reach the summit.

Ride the Snowdon Mountain Railway. Not up for hiking? You can still enjoy breathtaking views at the peak by riding in the Victorian-era carriages of the Snowdon Mountain Railway. The railway has been operating for more than 100 years now.

Visit the Electric Mountain. Anyone who stays in a Snowdonia B and B will mostly hear this tip: Go visit the Electric Mountain. Though it may not sound as picturesque as Snowdon, it's an important site that showcases innovative hydroelectric technology. This power station is located in the Elidir Fawr mountain and boasts a lengthy stretch of tunnels plus a huge man-made cavern.

Ride the fastest Zip Line in the world. Zip World's Velocity 2 isn't just the longest in all of Europe (it spans 1.5km), but it's also the fastest in the whole world.
