I love walking by water and having great views at the same time and at Llŷn Idwal these are there in abundance. The Lake (Llŷn in Welsh) is a classic glacial tarn set at the foot of the YGarn. Ambitious walkers can scale this great peak rising to 947 metres, but I stayed mainly on the level.
Nant Ffrancon is ac lassic glacial U shaped valley
Waterfalls abound. Take some time to visit the Rhaeadr Ogwen near the car park to the north.
The Snowdonia National Park have done a great job surfacing this route, not tarmac but real stone. The trouble is you have to watch your footing.
20 minutes of steady walking reveals this brilliant view north wards.
The Lake is tranquil and home to a feat variety of wildlife species.
The Carneddau Mountains loom as a backdrop and a reminder of challenges to come
