Llynheilyn lake is just off the A44 at Fforest Inn and you drive right past going towards Hundred House We stopped off quickly to let the dogs have a quick break before we reached the campsite a little further along
The lake with the surrounding hills still with snow on
I always thought the lake flooded across the road
But it's marked on the map as a ford
and runs away as a stream with a temporary snow bridge across it nearby
The lake usually has a lot of wild fowl on it though there were few around when we stopped off
Last look and we were off

This looks like a great place to stop several times during the summer to see what it attracts. Even empty, it's a nice place to stop with the water running down.
ReplyDeleteThe water never stops running
DeleteThe lake looks like a flooded field in that first photo. So much water around. Let's hope we have some sunshine this month.
ReplyDeleteIt does but it's like it all year round
