We love this place for its beauty showing Snowdonia in a wonderful setting. The beauty of the mountain range with the greenery creates a wonderful composition and the Afon Glaslyn river paints unforgettable pictures of this part of Wales!

A perfect circular walk with breathtaking views with steam trains thrown in for good measure. Had two well behaved dogs with me which made every human encounter (very few) full of positivity and smiles.
