Thinking of going to see / search for the wild (feral) goats in Snowdonia in March when the weather warms up a bit. Apparently, there are nearly 1000 of them.

Has anyone been and done something similar? How close can you get (without harming them or us)? Best places to go?

Thanks, folks.

Is it fairly easy to get close or closeish to the Great Orm goats (without distressing them, of course)?

Yes, very easy, you can do a couple of things, walk around the Great Orm or cable car it to the top (probably your best option unless you are feeling fit amd healthy wink )
Sweet. A bit of cable car, goat-spotting, and an ice cream at the summit. Just the ticket to blow out the Winter cobwebs driving

Useful photo. Shows it is worth the trek to North Wales.
