    Tips

    July 6, 2022

    The small village of Croesor is perhaps most renowned for the striking pyramidal peak that rises above it. This is Cnicht, a mountain that's so dramatic in its appearance that it is often cited as being 'the Welsh Matterhorn'. With historic ties to the slate industry, Croesor's surroundings still bear many of the hallmarks of this once thriving trade.
