Descripción
Aber Falls is located in one of the northernmost of Wales' classic hill valley woodlands. Easily accessible from the university city of Bangor and the North Wales coastal road. The semi-natural to natural woods of Oak, Ash, Alder, and Hawthorn are excellent breeding habitat for the four classical upland broadleaf woodland birds, Papamoscas Cerrojillo, Colirrojo Real, Bisbita Arbóreo and Mosquitero Silbador, as well as resident species like Pito Real and Zorzal Charlo. The river below the Falls, the Afon Goch, has Mirlo-acuático Europeo, Lavandera Cascadeña and Andarríos Chico. Around the cliffs beside the Falls, scan for Mirlo Capiblanco in spring and summer, and on the screes, Tarabilla Norteña, Tarabilla común and Collalba Gris. The area is bleak in winter, but flocks of Zorzal Alirrojo and Zorzal Real can be seen in the open ground, and Jilguero Lúgano and Pardillo Alpino feeding on seeds in the Alders and Birches.
A longer, strenuous option is to continue to the southeast of the falls; climb up the side of the former plantation to the northeast of the Falls, then cut straight up the open moor to Llwytmor (849 m) and on to Foel-fras (944 m) and Foel Grach (974 m), or even to Carnedd Llewelyn (1,064 m). Birds up here are few, but Cuervo Grande is reliable, Halcón Peregrino regular, Chova Piquirroja occasional, and in mid to late May, spring passage Chorlito Carambolo are frequently seen on the barren high tops. Be careful when descending to follow a safe path, don't try climbing down the cliffs beside Aber Falls!

NoInformación extra
Note that the mountain option should only be attempted during good weather (dry, with cloud base reliably above 1,500 m). With low cloud and rain - frequent at any time of the year - the moors become very dangerous, as it is easy to get lost and fall down any of the many crags. Make sure you are equipped for heavy rain at any time - this is a temperate rainforest area! In winter, deep snow can be expected above 300-400 m; do not attempt the mountains in this without good mountaineering experience!
