Llanberis in Gwynedd • follow this link for full video • • #Llanberis: A Must-Visit Destination ... • Nestled at the bottom of Snowden, Llanberis has so much to offer. We were only here for a day for my daughter to complete some work for a college assignment, so this is a whistle stop tour of some of the main attractions. • The historic Dolbadarn Castle built in the 13th century by the Welsh Prince Llywelyn at the base of the Llanberis pass. Important as a symbol of power as well as militarily. Considered to be the finest surviving Welsh round tower. • Llyn Peris, like its larger neighbour Llyn Padarn was formed by glacial action and is now the lower reservoir of the Electric mountains water system • Hidden Deep in the mountain is the Hydroelectric power station with the main generator and turbine housed in a massive manmade chamber • Llyn Padarn and the country park are a fantastic place for paddle boarding and kayaking, or just have a walk along one of the trails from Padarn country park. • Within Padarn country park is the Slate Museum which helps to tell the story of the 3000 men who would have once worked the quarries. • The scars of the slate industry are clear to see in the welsh mountains this is Vivian quarry, now home to a diving centre though currently closed due to a land slide. • These narrow-gauge trains run along a 5-mile return trip from Llanberis onto the old slate railway route along the bank of Lake Padarn. Hauled by steam locomotives rescued from the Dinorwic Slate • The miners’ hospital, built in 1860 and was one of the first building in the area to have hot and cold running water and electricity. The hospital was maintained by a sick club paid into by the Miners. • If you don’t fancy the walk up the summit of Snowden there’s always the train, and if you are lucky it will be a heritage steam train. Though for 2022 the train is only going to Clogwyn station ¾s of the way up. • Cuenant Mawr • This beautiful water was worthy of its on video.
