MAES YR FUTTEN, four miles south of Bala, on a

There is very good angling in the stream which 

 flows out of Tal y Llyn Lake, towards Towyn. 

 About two or three miles from the village is a 

 favourite spot, where the river pours itself over a 

 ledge of rock; and the bank being rather lofty on 

 one side, the pool below the fall is generally in 

 shade. It is famous for salmon, particularly in the 

 neighbourhood of Penniarth. 



FESTINIOG. This village is pleasantly situated 

 on an eminence between the rivers Dwyrryd and 

 Cynvael, on the road from the western coast to 

 Yspylly Ivan and Bala Lake. The Vale of Fes- 

 tiniog is encompassed by lofty hills, the slopes of 

 which are, in many places, well clothed with wood, 

 finely varied with projecting rocks and green- 

 sward, and contrasted with the rich corn-fields and 

 meadows skirting the margin of the Dwyrryd.
