Sgwd yr Eira

Reviewed By GDhengoed

Walk behind the falls Ive walked here numerous times taking new people for a wonderful experience. After heavy rain it is spectacular. Be warned it can be very slippery and twice the rocks behind the falls were frozen which meant we had to walk through the river to continue our loop walk. Not needed if you return along your access route. This is not somewhere you should walk without a reasonable level of fitness. North access involves numerous steep steps. Southern access is easier. When water levels are high access behind the falls is slippery and awkward .

Aber Falls

Reviewed By OldWulf - Wolverhampton, United Kingdom

Save £3 and park in the village just up by the hotel, then take advantage of the most educational free public toilet in the UK. The Easy Route is well named and for the majority of the population , including push chairs, wheelchairs and intrepid flip flop wearers, the path is clear and the falls are truly lovely, especially on a warm day when you can paddle in pristine cold water. For the fitter, braver, boot wearing traveller the route down along the Harder Path takes in another smaller waterfall and a tougher, longer path strewn with boulders, muddy patches, steep up and down sections and sheep. Dogs on leads essential and the last mile is vertigo territory. You'll be thankful you didn't choose this route to start with. The scenery is stunning , an overheard comment being "It's like a mini Yosemite".

Sgwd Einion Gam

Reviewed By MarkMahoney - Aldershot, United Kingdom

fantastic waterfall up stream from lady falls. to get here you follow through paths and the occasional river crossing, can be slippery so advise good footwear, good trainers should be ok. it's about 800m from lady falls. near the einion falls itself their is a very tricky bit a steep hill path on the right, takes you 30/40metres through a cliff hanging pass where you need to concretate. you can avoild this by keep walking along the river. once at the falls its just magical and its possible to have it to yourself. to actually get right up to the falls your need to swim cos it is deep. really worth the effort.

Beautiful easy walk to the waterfall. Takes about 30-45 mins. Along the way water for the dog to swim. Two paths, one gravel and one grass through field.

Devil's Bridge Falls

Reviewed By DevonAng - Devon, United Kingdom

Walked the 675 steps down to the bottom of the waterfall and back up to finish opposite the hotel. Stunning views, very challenging walk with steep steps and uneven and slippery in places. Well worth the effort and time to take in all of nature and scenery. The noise and force of the water were brilliant.

Dolgoch Falls

Reviewed By C3966OOjohnt

Always attractive, with the recent rain, the falls are boiling with the volume of water coming off the hills. The aid is so pure and thd walk from the car park is easy. The carpark hadbeemclosed during lockdown but it now open, don’t forget to pay the parking charge which I’d not lot.
