Hiking
This gloriously tranquil valley takes you deep into the Carneddau, where a scramble up the Llech Ddu Spur or rock climbs on the Ysgolion Duon (Black Ladders) awaits. The intimidating Llech Ddu buttress looks immense towards the head of the valley, in contrast to the peacefully meandering Afon Llafar. If you're lucky, you might meet a few of the Carneddau's semi-wild ponies.
