Nimbus Accessibility
We are committed to helping guests with additional needs experience an enjoyable and memorable visit to the Snowdon Mountain Railway.
We are proud to now partner with Nimbus Disability, operators of the Access Card scheme.
ACCESS GUIDANCE
ESSENTIAL COMPANION
Unfortunately we do not offer free travel to carers.
We would ask customers to contact us directly to discuss any additional support required with boarding the train.
STANDING AND QUEUING
We have both indoor and outdoor seating. We offer the provision of a wheelchair for use on site at no charge.
LEVEL ACCESS
We have access ramps to the departures platform and ramps for both embarking and debarking carriages. Staff will offer assistance as required.
LONG DISTANCES
It is a short distance from the Ticket Office to boarding the train with full wheelchair access.
URGENT TOILET ACCESS
At Llanberis station the toilets are on ground level adjacent to the Ticket Office on the main forecourt. There is a RADAR key available to customers at the Ticket Office or from the station cleaning personnel. There is an accessible toilet for wheelchair users adjacent to the main toilets. There are no toilet facilities when the destination is Clogwyn Station. The summit building has full toilet accessibility.
ASSISTANCE DOGS
Water bowls are available at each catering and retail outlet. There are ample grassed areas on the boundaries of the station for toileting.
VISUAL INFORMATION
Consideration is given with our signage to accommodate those customers with visual impairment. We offer a free app which provides audio describing the history and journey on Snowdon.
MISCELLANEOUS
Snowdon Mountain railway understands the individual’s disability may present unique challenges and encourages customers to contact us directly to discuss their requirements.
