Talybont
Tal-y-Bont is a little village 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, and in the neighborhood of Caerhun. It lies beside the village of Dolgarrog to the south, and below the little negotiation of Llanbedr-y-Cennin to the west. The 'Bont' (the mutated form of pont, Welsh for "bridge") in the name possibly refers to the bridge over the Afon Dulyn, a tributary of the nearby River Conwy, which goes through the village. Tal-y-Bont is the starting point for the roadway to Llyn Eigiau as well as the southerly Carneddau hills. Accessibility to the northern end of the Carneddau Range as well as the Roman road over to Aberystwyth can also be achieved by adhering to the road up from Tal-y-Bont via Llanbedr-y-Cennin - which gets on the eastern side of the Snowdonia National Park - and taking a left fork at the club, Ye Olde Bull Inn, in Llanbedr. Pedestrians can access tops in the north end of the Carneddau Range such as Drum and Foel Fras, and then proceed south east to get to Carnedd Llewelyn.
