    Road cycling

    Llyn Cwellyn is a reservoir in North Wales which supplies drinking water to parts of Gwynedd and Anglesey. It lies on the Afon Gwyrfai in Nant y Betws between Moel Eilio and Mynydd Mawr in the northern part of Snowdonia National Park. It has an area of 215 acres, and is over 120 ft deep.
    It has amazing views well worth a stop.

    Road cycling

    Found this lovely back road behind the Llyn Cwellyn with great views of the Arenig Hills. Highly recommend this road rather than using the main road around the lake.
