Its wildlife

Cymraeg

Located in a remote location of  Snowdonia National Park, the area already attracts a range of wildife. The woodland is home to pied flycatchers which glide through the valley as buzzards and ravens soar over the mountainous terrains. The melodic calls of the willow warbler and the drumming of the greater spotted woodpecker can be heard throughout the spring. At night, howling calls from the tawny owl echo across the valley and otters hunt across the rocky streams. We aim to allow the heather and bilberry moorland to regenerate creating a wider mosaic of habitats for species to flourish.

The site is also home to some 80 species of lichens and mosses, including some very special ones, which promise to help us in our restoration plans to recreate exactly the right conditions for a superb oak woodland.
