North Wales, Lliwedd Copper Mine from Bethania.

A visit to the ruined Copper Mine below Lliwedd Bach on Snowdon Today. I spotted this mine while on the Snowdon Horseshoe and promised to pay a visit one day. Today was ideal as the mist was down and all the high tops were covered.

6hrs

Leaving the car park at Bethania and heading up The Watkin Path.

About a mile and a half up the Watkin path a bridge can be seen down to the right which we crossed that lead up to the mine.

At Lliwedd Copper Mine SH634531.

Moel Hebog in the background from above the mine.

Goats and a great view over to the Glyderau.

Mist clearing from Crib Goch.

From here we headed down to Pen y Pass and then down the Nant Gwynant Valley.

Cwm Dyli Pipeline.

Back at Bethania and Snowdon appears breifly to say hello.
