Spending couple of days in area around 8th October with friends, some of whom plan to go up Snowdon. (Don't know which route; never been to area.) They are all female, all younger than me, a few are regular walkers - to c. Duke of Ed. Silver standard. I am 52 and walk 5 miles most days - but on the flat! Should I expect to manage it, weather permitting, of course? I can't get any real sense of how steep the paths are, how long or how much it's within the capabilities of someone like me. Don't want to start and then struggle, or not do it if it's something averagely fit people can cope with! (I have stout walking shoes and boots.) Any advice, please?
