About

Llyn Cwm Ffynnon is a natural landmark in north. (Lake in Snowdonia, Wales.) According to Wikipedia: "Llyn Cwm-y-ffynnon is a lake in Snowdonia, below the summit of Moel Berfedd in Cwmffynnon. The lake's original name was Fynnon Mymbyr as outlined in Llywelyn ap Iorwerth's charter of 1198. As the name suggests, the lake nestles in a short valley, a cwm, high above the Pen-y-Gwryd hotel. The lake is the source of the Nantygwryd river which in Welsh translates to Pen-y-Gwryd."
