Lake Vyrnwys straining tower! Lovely place and gives it that fairy tale vibe. One of my special places is Vyrnwy.

Great place for a stop--ice cream and coffee!

Good loop. I rode up out of Llanuwchllyn. But this ride would work very well starting in Bala. The section up around Arenig is great. A few gates to open/close, one farm to go through....but this is a good alternative to the sadly hobbled Bala Loop (Vyrnwy).

Plenty of drink and eateries

After crossing the River Dee, this stretch of quiet road, beyond the initial stepping climb, was a lovely gentle ride through lush green countryside with views towards some distant mountains to the right and then circling around to behold the first sighting of Llyn Tegid. Beaut.

Was impassable with e-bikes, as the water the about 5 feet deep, would have damaged the electrics.Had to turn around and take the footpath back

Bala is a town and community in Gwynedd, Wales. Formerly an urban district, Bala lies in the historic county of Merionethshire at the north end of Bala Lake. it has a wonderful village style feeling, and everyone speaks Welsh, which is truly amazing to hear. They have some good shops and supermarkets. They have tiny little petrol stations on the curb, and they attendant comes out and serves you. Great roads in this area and some can be very steep in these parts, plenty of cyclists and motorcycles well worth a ride.

The Straining Tower at Lake Vyrnwy is an intake tower built to extract water from the lake. The tower stands on the north shore of Lake Vyrnwy, near the village of Llanwddyn, in Powys, Wales. The Lake Vyrnwy dam project was designed to provide a water supply to the city of Liverpool and work on the dam began in 1881. On its completion 11 years later, the lake was the largest reservoir in Europe and water was drawn from it into the straining tower and carried to Liverpool on a 110km-long aqueduct. The engineers for the project were Thomas Hawksley and George Frederick Deacon, although the straining tower was entirely Deacon's design. The tower is constructed in a Gothic Revival style, purportedly based on the tower of the castle at Chillon, Switzerland. It draws heavily on the contemporaneous work of William Burges, whose Cardiff Castle and Castell Coch are clear influences. The straining tower is a Grade I listed building.
