Beddgelert Attractions

Beddgelert (pop. 500), the village at the confluence of the rivers Colwan and Glaslyn, is one of the most charming little places in Wales, a favorite starting point for walks and climbs, situated as it is at the junction of three main roads. From Moel Hebog, a 2 hours' climb from here, there is a splendid panoramic view extending out into Cardigan Bay. One road from here descends to Caernarfon, another runs northeast through Nant Gwynant, the valley of the Glaslyn and one of the most beautiful in Wales.
