Cwmffynnon and Llyn Cwmffynnon Details

This lake and cwm is well hidden, yet only minutes walk from the main road. Nestling underneath Glyder Fawr, on the unfashionable southern side, it’s mainly frequented by wild campers and those looking for rougher going. Section arounf the lake are boggy, but still plenty of dry spots to lay your tent.

There’s an ascent to Castell y Gwynt from this cwm, apparently!
