Attractions / Activities

Conveniently situated in the village near to the Welsh Highland Railway station and 1 mile from the forest, Beddgelert Bikes have over 200 mountain bikes in stock for hire.

Fairbourne’s beautiful golden sands are backed by a steep bank of pebbles. They fringe a narrow finger of land that extends most of the way across the mouth of the Mawddach Estuary, with stunning views of mountains, woodlands and the sea.

This 1000 yard 9 Hole par 3 course is an ideal starter course for beginners, and is available to the general public. Club hire and ball hire are available.

It’s the smallest of Wales’s narrow-gauge railways, with a track width of only 12¼ins. So it’s dinky, it’s sweet – but it takes you on a railway ride through the dunes to some pretty big views of the Mawddach Estuary and mountains beyond.

A charming little cottage, low of beam and dark of stone, in the heart of Beddgelert. It’s owned by the National Trust, so you’d expect it to be historic – and it certainly is.

A remarkable underground experience. Abandoned in 1903 but now reopened to visitors, Sygun tells the story of Victorian miners. Nowadays, it’s hard to believe that such gritty industrial heritage exists amongst so much natural beauty.
