At the foothills of Cnicht

Welcome to this peaceful valley nestled in Snowdonia National Park in Gwynedd, North Wales. Once humming with activity from the quarries that produced slate for roofs, floors and slabs, Cwm Croesor has since returned to a quieter life. But its moss-covered dry-stone walls, babbling streams, sheep-grazed fields and stiles are all still there to be crossed by walkers making their way up from Croesor to the Moelwynion mountain range.
