This remote and ethereal ancient oak woodland was once part of a historic estate and slopes gently towards Llyn Mair (Mary's Lake). A network of trails offers spectacular views across Snowdonia National Park, while steam trains from the iconic Ffestiniog Railway wind along the border.

With rare wildlife and an abundance of beautiful flora, Coed Hafod y Llyn is the perfect forest destination for train enthusiasts and nature lovers.

Coed Hafod-y-llyn is an ethereal ancient oak woodland that rises from the shores of Llyn Mair. A network of trails explore the woodland and steam trains chug along its boundary. The woodland is a great place to spot wildlife. Keep a lookout for birds including redstart, pied flycatcher, osprey, goshawk and wood warbler. It’s also a great place for mammals and provides a habitat for foxes, badgers, horseshoe bats and the elusive pine marten.
