Planning your Visit

English  Cymraeg

Allow plenty of time for your visit. There is a lot to see if you are walking so bring Binoculars if you have them, Kite feeding takes place in the afternoon, and can be viewed from around the lake or from the Visitor Centre.

There are plenty of picnic areas, and the Restaruant serves refreshments and food.

The Visitor Centre is open daily from 10.00AM to 5.00PM (Summer), 11.00AM to 2.30PM (Winter), closed December 25th - 27th. Summer opening is generally 1st April to 31st October. It is advisable to check the kite feeding times and opening hours during poor weather, before commencing your journey.

The Cycle Trails and Walks are always open, but occasionally some paths and trails may be closed due to forestry operations.
