Dinorwic Slate Quarry

Historical landmark

👍👍 Lots to see on this walk, mountains of slate and old ruins aka the Anglesea Barracks. Loved the mountain goats who didn't seem to mind people. Saw a few other people on the walk. Lovely views over the quarry. We took the path to the left, followed a path that took us on a circular route. Very enjoya...

    Unbelievable place to visit. You can't grasp the scale of the place from photos. We spent just over half the day here and only did the top half of the quarry. You can easily spend the whole day and not do everything. Well worth the journey.

    Love this place, spent so much time here, a place of outstanding beauty and my favourite playground. Dinorwic oozes mining history, I could spend days here and not see everything. ❤️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

    Snakes and ladders. Very fun and exciting place to visit, even for a novice like me. But best explored with somebody experienced in climbing and the route.
