Tan y Bwlch railway station is a scenic stop on the Ffestiniog Railway, a heritage narrow-gauge line. Leading through a landscape of foothills, mountains, forests and llyns, it is a spellbinding journey to undertake. Once you step out of the station, some fabulous walking and exceptional wildlife awaits you, too. Founded in 1832, the Ffestiniog Railway is the oldest railway company that survives today.
