A brief stop at this natural lake formed by a large landslide when it was a glaciated valley thus damming up the lake area. Talyllyn literally means 'the end of the lake' . The Welsh name Mwyngil is made up of Mwn (neck) and cul (narrow). It sits peacefully below Cadair Idris in the Snowdonia Mountain Range

Aberdyfi for sea views of the Dyfi Estuary. Arriving around lunchtime. You have around two hours here, which is enough for an unhurried lunch, a walk along the seafront and harbour, and a little time on the sand if the weather is kind. There are a number of small local shops and eateries available but less tourists than other coastal towns.
