A woman’s body has been recovered from Snowdon after a walker alerted police.

Llanberis Mountain Rescue Team was called to the site, on the Rhyd Ddu path south-west of the summit. She was stretchered from the mountain by members of the team on Wednesday and passed into the care of paramedics.

The walker was alone, and police say her death is not being treated as suspicious.

Temperatures on Snowdon have been below freezing for the last few days.
