As the topic suggests the SWAMBO and I have decided to pack the bags and head to Wales for some 4x4 action and to throw Mt Snowdon in on one day as well.
The thoughts so far are to finish work on Thursday pack up and head off straight up to Snowdon. Spend the night somewhere, back of the car, camp, b&b for the night. Hit Snowdon on Friday as it will be the quietest day of the long weekend with people watching the royal wedding.
After half a day on the mountain (take the train up and maybe walk back down or train down) head off and either do a few lanes up that way that day and spend the night on the trail and then start to head back down south doing lanes along the way until Monday afternoon then head home.
Can anyone recommend a few good lanes in the Snowdon area and then a few good lanes heading back down south? I am more than happy to pick up a few paper maps and take a look but if you could advise me to which are the best maps to get that would be great as I don’t want to get the whole of Wales on paper (I think) as it may get expensive.
Once I have the maps I am happy to spend an hour or 2 in a pub with a black marker and a few beers having a chat with anyone who can help put a good trip together. I am also very happy to either be joined or join fellow cruiser members if they are in the area for a spot of lanning.
SWAMBO and I are keen to spend the evenings on the trail camping or sleeping in the back of the truck.
Thanks in advance.

close to Snowdon 
I can't remember precisely the road it's on 
possibly the A498 or the A4805, I used to use it when camping up in North Wales a long time ago, it's got all the facilities necessary.
