Lodge Life :: September 2023 #1 … A Drive through the Mountains

Hi there everyone 😀

We ended up just managing a weeks stay at the lodge in September and it ended up being pretty much all about the mountains this time. 

In fact I think our only visit to the coast was to try out a different fish and chip shop in Cricieth … which was a real winner …

Our first full day out was a bit of a meandering drive taking in Nantlle …

… before a stop off for a bit of a wander around Beddgelert …

… where the river was very high …

From Beddgelert we continued heading for Nant Gwynant …

… stopping at the viewpoint to take in the view of Yr Wyddfa in the distance …

We carried on through Capel Curig where we hit the A5 and took a left to head through the Ogwen Valley, stopping to take in the vastness of the lake as we passed …

We pulled in at the National Trust car park for a bit of a waterfall fix …

… and then decided it was time to head for home … but not without finally getting to call into Y Bryncynan, which is somewhere we have been meaning to try for ages. We weren’t disappointed …
