Talybont
Tal-y-Bont is a little town in Conwy County Borough, Wales and depends on the Conwy Valley, west of the River Conwy, on the B5106 road, 6 miles from the town of Conwy to the north, and also 6 miles from Llanrwst to the south, as well as in the area of Caerhun. It lies adjacent to the town of Dolgarrog to the south, and also listed below the small settlement of Llanbedr-y-Cennin to the west. The 'Bont' (the mutated form of pont, Welsh for "bridge") in the name most likely refers to the bridge over the Afon Dulyn, a tributary of the close-by River Conwy, which goes through the town. Tal-y-Bont is the starting point for the road to Llyn Eigiau and the southerly Carneddau hills. Accessibility to the northern end of the Carneddau Range as well as the Roman road over to Aberystwyth can additionally be achieved by adhering to the road up from Tal-y-Bont with Llanbedr-y-Cennin - which gets on the eastern edge of the Snowdonia National Park - and taking a left fork at the pub, Ye Olde Bull Inn, in Llanbedr. Walkers can access peaks in the north end of the Carneddau Range such as Drum and Foel Fras, and then proceed south east to reach Carnedd Llewelyn.
