캄브리아기 산맥‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪20‬개의 폭포

The view you are most likely to see is from the top of the falls, to the side. There is a rock shelf that provides a good view for this view. In the summer you will also find people jumping off this shelf into the plunge pool below! There are other views that can be reached down a gully and then along a rough path that takes you to river level.

The Llantysilio Green weir, more commonly known as the Horseshoe Falls, is a 140-meter-long, horseshoe-shaped weir designed by Thomas Telford in 1808 to divert water from the River Dee into the Llangollen Canal. This prominent structure is a significant piece of engineering and a feature of the World Heritage Site, providing water for the canal and attracting tourists with its unique design and surrounding landscape. The Llantysilio Green Car Park is a designated access point for visiting the falls. In the late 19th century a long piece of wood, about 30cm wide, floated on the water here to deflect floating debris away from the canal intake. It was fixed at one end. It’s visible in the photo, taken c.1890. Some trippers couldn’t resist the temptation to walk along it, ignoring a warning sign nearby, if they weren’t spotted by the “waterman” in charge of the sluice. Local residents took a dim view of such “unheeding folly”. 😂😂

Nice

Wear good shoes.

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.

Straight ahead over the bridge is the path to Cwm Idwal, but take time to see the waterfall and rapids on the River Idwal. Very pretty.
