Very nice bridge not for traffic though as it’s a single lane track with passing gaps for pedestrians.

Craig Goch Dam Information Board

Gorgeous area. Be aware the road/trail on the south side (including access to/from Llanymawddwy) are currently closed due to damage from storm Darragh. See https://www.hdcymru.co.uk/our-visitor-sites/lake-vyrnwy/storm-darragh/ for more details.

Sorted me out with fresh brake pads. Proper bike shop with almost everything you’d need.

Nice place for a coffee stop before hitting g gospel pass

If riding across bridge into Crick, take the first right hand road (next to the pub) to avoid traffic going up the hill and into town. It also takes you straight tup to the high st.

reopened in 2025, thumbs up!

Now open everyday 0800 til 1700. Caffi Siabod is at the foot of Moel Siabod in the village of Capel Curig. Serving the local Community as well as walkers, hikers and bikers

It's well worth the effort to climb to the top of the pass.

There is a little cafe above the main car park for a coffee and cake after the "gift shop" labelled walks. As usual, Komoot makes the walk easier than using signposts - remember to download to the phone app. Kayaking/canoeing around the lake is only possible for about half of it due to a protected bird sanctuary.

City of old white people. The whole thing has little to do with a romantic book village, antique shops and cafes characterize the townscape together with congested streets

Fantastic views of the lake

Great piece of road with dramatic views, a speedy descent toward Llanberis

Pen y Garreg Dam third of the Elan Valley Dams, also known as the middle dam. This dam houses an access tunnel to the central tower which is lit by apertures in the downstream side of the dam. Height - 123 ft above river bed. Beautiful scenery a great ride around this area.

The Craig Goch Dam, often called the Top dam, is a masonry dam in the Elan Valley of Wales and creates the upper-most of the Elan Valley Reservoirs. Construction on the dam began in 1897, and it was completed in 1904. The primary purpose of the dam and the other reservoirs is to supply Birmingham with water. In 1997, a 480 kW hydroelectric generator began operation at the dam.

Best on gravel or MTB but well worth the visit

The Elan dam scheme was developed in the 19th century following rapid growth of the population of Birmingham due to the Industrial Revolution. The city's expansion resulted in regular outbreaks of water-borne diseases and major epidemics such as typhoid, cholera and dysentery due to the lack of clean water.
