This is the start of the climb to Pen Y Fan by the main route from Storey Arms.

You should pay the fee to visit. Plenty of signs and information to get here but no mention of a fee. £1 per person, £1 per car, 50p per child.... at this point we stopped reading as we don't carry cash. Woman came from the house to make sure we didn't slip in. Fully understand that it's private land and you have to pay to enjoy it. Just wish we'd known before we set off.

The photos don’t do this part of the coastline any justice. The sheer drops are impressive!

The view from the front is also very impressive! 👍🏻

Here the water flows calmly, just before it thunders through the rocks! 😊

Up close, very impressive! And only a few people on this side.

After the rest stop at Llyn Y Cwn we descend and pass the Devil's Kitchen (Twll Du) again. The descent is as strenuous as the climb. The path, as far as can be seen, is quite steep in places. Then it becomes a matter of paying attention, scrambling and searching for the next section of the path. This is not such an easy part of the route. You have to use your hands and feet to conquer the steepest parts.

Swallow Falls is one of the highest continuous waterfalls in Wales. It comprises a series of beautiful cascades on the River Llugwy, approximately one mile east of Betws y Coed, on the way to Capel Curig and just off the A5. The falls are surrounded by lush woodland. Swallow Falls is a breathtaking natural wonder that attracts thousands of visitors each year. Visitors can view the falls from a viewing platform. The viewing platform is open all year round and admission costs £2 (cash or credit card).
