Just across the A470 from the cottages there is a trail. It leads up through woodland, then further up through some rocky scrubland before leading into the edges of Coed Y Brenin Forest.
I’ve long practiced the art of turning around when I walk. It’s too easy to simply concentrate on what’s in front of you for photos, when you can often miss a scene unfolding behind you. This was one such occasion. I was excited follow the interesting looking trail into the forest, but turned around to see the sun breaking through and casting a gorgeous glow at the edge of the forest – made all the better by the reflections in the conveniently placed pool.
