The second highest mountain in Britain is Snowdon, which is in north Wales. The highest mountain in Britain is Ben Nevis, which is in Scotland. I'm afraid the above is an all too common misconception. The second highest mountain in Great Britain is Ben MacDui in the Cairngorms. Indeed, the first 60 highest mountains in Great Britain are all in Scotland. Snowdon is the 61st highest.
