What good rock climbing is near the site?
One of the earliest recorded climbs in Snowdonia – Lockwoods Chimney – is a 20 minute walk up the river from the campsite. Immediately opposite the site, only 10 minutes walk over the old stone bridge is the crag on Gallt y Wenallt called Clogwyn y Wenallt which has a range of climbs for experienced climbers. Clogwyn y Bustach is just a short walk from the head of the lake Note though that the climbs on the cliffs of Nantgwynant vary a great deal from crag to crag. Bustach may be too loose for some people. Craig y Llyn is rather slopey in character and tends to mossiness; it is a ‘big boys’ crag – so beware.
