Queen's Baton Relay in Wales: Summit and sea on day 6

The Queen's Baton Relay scaled Wales' highest peak on day six of its tour ahead of the 2014 Commonwealth Games in Glasgow.

It reached the top of Snowdon at about 07:45 BST where the baton was handed to Paralympic gold medal-winning discus thrower Aled Davies.

It was also carried by BBC The One Show's Alex Jones along the Menai Strait after visiting Anglesey.

Celebrations ended in Caernarfon with a special edition of The One Show.

Five runners from Eryri running club were up early to make the five mile journey up the 3,560ft (1,085m) mountain.

From Snowdon, the baton travelled to Beaumaris on Anglesey where it was greeted by members of the Holyhead and Anglesey weightlifting centre - one of Britain's centres of excellence in the sport.

Baton 'drama'

At Menai Bridge it stopped off on the set of the Welsh language drama Rownd a Rownd, before The One Show's Alex Jones jumped on a rib boat for a rapid ride up the Strait to Plas Menai - the Wales National Watersports Centre.

Cyclists under the watchful eye of former British cycling chief Sir Dave Brailsford, who was brought up in north Wales, carried the baton back to the foot of Snowdon and took it to the village of Llanberis.

Kayakers then won a race with a train carrying the Glasgow 2014 Commonwealth Games mascot Clyde around Llyn Padarn.

The lake has a special place in Welsh Commonwealth Games history as it was the venue for rowing competitions in the 1958 games.

The day ended back in Caernarfon, where the community put on its own show for a special edition of The One Show, broadcast from the town's Victoria Dock.

"To have the BBC's The One Show broadcasting live will give the area a great opportunity to showcase the wonderful opportunities and iconic landmarks to a viewing audience on average of six million," added the Caernarfon mayor.
