    Tips

    December 6, 2023

    Hiking

    You'll find Llyn yr Adar's wild waters between the popular Cnicht, often cited as being the 'Welsh Matterhorn', and the less frequented Ysgafell Wen. The llyn is a useful navigational feature for those who've ascended Cnicht and are continuing to Moelwyns Mawr and Bach, or for those heading back to Croesor. It's also a great wild swimming spot and don't be surprised to see tents pitched by its shores either.

    Hiking

    Mountain lake. Plenty of space around the lake, with opportunities to find drinking water. Often used for wild camping.

    Running

    A beautiful and secluded lake in the Moelwynion region.

    The banks of the lake are a relatively popular wild-camping spot, and the lake is a perfect spot to cool off and have a breather.
