Scenic Train Ride & Village Charm with Ffestiniog & Welsh Highland Railways

Duration

Waunfawr - Beddgelert and return. A day out.

Please note that due to very limited parking in Waunfawr we recommend you only use this pick up service if you are staying in the village or campsite.

The alternative is to start your journey at Caernarfon for the full experience. Please see Gelert Explorer- Standard.

Our premier service from Caernarfon picks up at Waunfawr, then on to Beddgelert, taking you on a scenic journey filled with variety as it crosses the foothills of Snowdon...

To help you make the most of your day, we offer the option to a pre-order a picnic hamper with freshly prepared local produce.

The train meanders into the mountains with views towards Snowdon itself.

After passing through Rhyd Ddu station, the train crosses the summit of the line before snaking down through the forest to Beddgelert, the pretty riverside village nestling amongst the hills.

You have approximately 90 minutes to explore the village, walk beside the river and learn more about the legend of Gelert, the faithful hound of Prince Llewellyn. There are numerous shops, cafes and pubs, and the ice cream parlour in the centre of the village is not to be missed.

Modern carriages with large windows give panoramic views on both sides of the train.

On Train amenities: Hot, Cold, Alcoholic drinks, sandwiches, cakes & snacks. All subject to change. There is a toilet available for passenger use.
