=== Mountains === The principal ranges of the traditional Snowdonia are the [[Snowdon massif]] itself, the [[Glyderau]], the [[Carneddau]], the [[Moelwynion]] and the [[Moel Hebog]] range. All of Wales' [[Welsh 3000s|3000ft mountains]] are to be found within the first three of these massifs and are most popular with visitors. To their south within the wider national park are the [[Rhinogydd]] and the [[Cadair Idris]] and [[Aran Fawddwy]] ranges. Besides these well-defined areas are a number of mountains which are less readily grouped, though various guidebook writers have assigned them into groups such as the "Arenigs", the "Tarrens" and the "Dyfi hills".<ref>{{cite book |last1=Hermon |first1=Peter |title=Hillwalking in Wales Volume 1: Arans β Dovey Hills |date=2006 |publisher=Cicerone |location=Milnthorpe |isbn=1852844671 |page=7 |edition=2nd}}</ref> Snowdon's summit at {{convert|1085|m|ft|abbr=off}} is the highest in Wales and the highest in Britain south of the Scottish Highlands.
