Description

Lovely spot near Snowdon Ranger Path Car Park. It’s very short walk along a shingle path to the shore, also shingle. It’s very shallow to begin with so you need to wade out quite far tp swim. The water is very clear so easy to see some of the larger rocks to avoid

Getting There

There is a car park off the A4085 Snowdon Rangers Path car park. It’s cost £3 for 4 hours. The shore is 2 min walk from there.

2-minute walk from road/car park where there were portaloos. Small gravel beach, easy wade in, some rocks to avoid, no other hazards apart from the cold! Beautiful.
