No. Not by a long shot. Snowdon is only 1085 metres (3,560 feet) above sea level, while Mt. Elbrus in southwestern Russia, in the Caucasus range, is 5642 metres (18,510 feet) above sea level, making it the highest mountain in Europe.

Snowdon is the highest mountain in Wales. But that isn't saying much, as all of Great Britain, as well as Ireland, is low-lying. Even the Scottish "Highlands" are only high in comparison to the Lowlands. But mountains in the UK are very low compared to the mountains of continental Europe.
