Overview

One of the most photographed spots in Eryri, with Yr Wyddfa (Snowdon) reflected in the water; if you want a swim with a view, this is unbeatable. The lake is around 3/4 mile long, with a depth of 30 feet and a delta halfway along the north shore which bisects the lake and gives it its plural name.

This event is part of Aquasphere Snowman Swim.
