The waterfall is formed as the Afon Goch plunges about 120 feet (37 m) over a sill of igneous rock in the foothills of the Carneddau range. Two tributaries merge; the enlarged stream is known as Afon Rhaeadr Fawr; from the road bridge, Bont Newydd ("New Bridge"), the name becomes Afon Aber.

LOVED THIS WALK!! Absolutely gorgeous no matter where you look. I would recommend going early as it got busy extremely quickly as the day went on. There's also some perfect places for the dog to go and have a splash in the rivers of both waterfalls! The car park costs £5 at the moment and there are toilets in one of them.

Stunning place, around 3 quarter of a mile walk to all the way to the Waterfalls. Mostly flat therefore its easy and a fun walk. £5 per vehicle. Tickets to be displayed on the windscreen and only accepts coins, hope the machine is fixed’ just spreading the message so that whoever is watching this post is prepared. Enjoy
