King Arthur’s Labyrinth at Corris

Wales is a very beautiful country with mountains, valleys and gorgeous scenery.

There are lots of places to go and visit.

One of the places to visit is King Arthur’s labyrinth, which is at Corris.

You have to go into the shop to pay and then you get your hard hat/helmet before walking down to the entrance.

The first thing you have to do is get into the flat bottom boat and that takes you into the mountain.

As you go along you come to the great waterfall, which switches off Just as front of the boat reaches it.

Everybody thinks they’re going to get soaking wet.

The boat travels through the waterfall and into the cavern and then everybody has to get out of the boat and follow the guide through the caverns.

There are model people and dragons for you to see/look at and all the time you are heading towards the red and the white dragons, which fought.

The red dragon won which is why there is a red dragon on the Welsh flag.

While you are at Corris there’s a pottery where you can buy pottery dragons, fairies and there’s a candle making shop, leather shop to buy hand bags, purses, belts etc and there’s a toy shop which sells wooden toys and various other shops.

There’s a café where you can go and buy a drink plus there’s an Information tourists board shop, which sells gifts, maps, books etc

Corris is about 5 miles from Machynlleth and it’s worth visiting if you are in the area.

Dolgoch Falls

The Dolgoch falls are about 4 miles from Tywyn on the A493 road, in the Snowdonian National park.

There is a car park with a pay and display at the front of the Dolgoch Falls hotel and a tearoom for refreshments.

There is a pathway through the woods to the lower falls. Halfway along there is a bridge crossing the river.

If you take the left hand path up the steps it will lead you to the middle and upper falls.

To the left of the lower fall there is an old miner’s cave that goes into the rock face.

The Talyllyn Railway steam trains pass over the viaduct and you can hear the engine whistle as the trains go up from Tywyn to Abergynolwyn.

At the top of the falls there is a picnic site and pools that you can paddle in.

There’s lots of wild life in the woods such as squirrels and mosses, ferns and all sorts of wild birds singing from the trees.

There is no charge to enter the falls but there is a donation box which helps towards the maintenance of the paths etc
