Talybont
Tal-y-Bont is a tiny village in Conwy County Borough, Wales and hinges on the Conwy Valley, west of the River Conwy, on the B5106 road, 6 miles from the town of Conwy to the north, and six miles from Llanrwst to the south, and also in the community of Caerhun. It exists adjacent to the town of Dolgarrog to the south, and below the tiny settlement of Llanbedr-y-Cennin to the west. The 'Bont' (the altered form of pont, Welsh for "bridge") in the name probably describes the bridge over the Afon Dulyn, a tributary of the nearby River Conwy, which goes through the town. Tal-y-Bont is the beginning factor for the roadway to Llyn Eigiau as well as the southern Carneddau mountains. Accessibility to the north end of the Carneddau Range as well as the Roman road over to Aberystwyth can additionally be achieved by complying with the road up from Tal-y-Bont via Llanbedr-y-Cennin - which gets on the eastern edge of the Snowdonia National Park - and also taking a left fork at the pub, Ye Olde Bull Inn, in Llanbedr. Pedestrians can access peaks in the north end of the Carneddau Range such as Drum as well as Foel Fras, and after that proceed southern east to get to Carnedd Llewelyn.
