Hiking
A gorgeous little woodland boasting fine views over to Snowdon, Nant y Betws occupies high ground above the village of Rhyd Ddu and Llyn Cwellyn. Two of the principal routes to Snowdon begin in the surroundings: the Snowdon Ranger Path starts from the north eastern side of Llyn Cwellyn, whilst the Rhyd Ddu Path starts from — you guessed it — Rhyd Ddu.
