Aberfalls♥️ An accessible path to the foot of one of Snowdonia’s most impressive waterfalls.

Aber Falls is one of Snowdonia’s most dramatic waterfalls. Situated at the northern foothills of the Carneddau, the waterfall is part of Afon Goch’s (Red River) final descent to the Menai Straits.

The river plummets dramatically from a height of 120 feet, crashing into a shallow rocky pool before continuing towards the village of Abergwyngregyn.
