Snowdon: Walker flown to hospital after 100ft mountain fall

The Pyg track is one of the main routes up Wales' highest mountain

A man has been airlifted to hospital after tumbling 100ft (30m) on Snowdon.

He was initially treated by volunteers from Llanberis Mountain Rescue Team and a Coastguard helicopter winchman before being flown to hospital.

The incident happened near a path on Wales' highest peak, known as the Pyg track, in Gwynedd on Saturday morning. The man's condition is not known.

The rescuers were already in the area after assisting a walker who had suffered a medical condition.

The team's first callout had been on the Llanberis path just after 07:00 BST.
