    Hiking

    Llyn Cynwch acts as both a 'prequel' and 'sequel' to the Precipice Walk, one of the most famous and popular walks in the area with breathtaking views. You'll get a glimpse of the lake if you take the route counterclockwise and you'll see it in all its glory if you finish the walk with a nice, steady stroll along the banks.
    Together with the Precipice Walk it is part of the historic Nannau estate and is a working water basin that has supplied drinking water for Dolgellau since 1968. Because it is a water basin, swimming is not allowed.

    Hiking

    It is a beautiful hike with lots of views in good weather. Very important: good footwear, sure-footedness can not hurt even though there are no dangerous places.
