Further Information and Other Local Ideas
The longer Llanberis Lake Walk starts from the lakeside car park and visits the falls. It also visits the Coed Victoria Woods and the photogenic Dolbadarn Castle which dates from the early 13th century.
On the fringes of the country park there's the fascinating Dinorwic Quarry to explore. At one time the quarry was the second largest slate quarry in the world, after the neighbouring Penrhyn quarry near Bethesda. You can pick up the tramway trail footpath across the site just north of the visitor centre.
