The wonderful stretch of mountain water has a magical atmosphere. Just off the the popular miners track walk on Snowdon, it is the perfect place to stop for a break and contemplate the hike you have nearly completed, or are yet to conquer. In the summer, this spot is hailed as a superb wild swimming spot.

The very beautiful hiking trail leads past the small mountain lake. The mountain panorama is worth seeing.

Nice little lake on the way up Snowdon. A teasing taster of what is to come :-)
