It's a nice place to stop at, but where is it in N Wales?

Huge still trying,  :(  but I came across two Woodland Trust sites that look interesting, if they are within your walking area.

Steve,  you'll have to try harder but I'm adding two photos to make it easier


Those two links are really good and we did the Felinrhyd one recently, it starts by the Hydro electricity place in Maentwrog and is well worth doing.    The Llangollen one may be a walk for us in the future

You're on the right track Steve, it's not Porthmadog but where is it, the bridge may give you a clue?

Well done Steve it is the Osprey reserve at Pont Croesor           Pont Croesor is the bridge in a previous photo


We went there on Thursday when we did a walk in the area but I'll post the walk later today,   The reserve is on one side of the rail track and the Pont Croesor Station is on the other side

The viaduct crosses a river and perhaps these photos may help?      So where exactly is the viaduct?
