Cae Du is situated in the heart of the breath-taking Parc Cenedlaethol Eryri (Snowdonia National Park). The local area is shrouded in Welsh history and folklore including the mythical legends, Gelert the Hound and the two dragons of Dinas Emrys.
It is less than a mile walk along the River Glaslyn to the picturesque stone-built village of Beddgelert with a choice of pubs, cafe's and craft shops. In the other direction we are less than a mile walk to the award winning family attraction, Sygun Copper Mines, as well as the enchanting water of Llyn Dinas.
Cae Du is a walkers paradise with glorious and abundant trails both from the site itself and just a short drive away. These spectacular hikes range in difficulty to suit all kinds of people. Set off from Cae Du and you can reach the famous 'Giants Chair', the legendary trail of Dinas Emrys or even conquer Moel Hebog, which dominates the backdrop of Beddgelert. Just a 5 minute drive will take you to the foot of Y Wyddfa (Snowdon), the highest mountain in England and Wales!
After a full day of adventure, set up camp with a well-deserved BBQ followed by a fire to roast your marshmallows.
