Hidden beneath the mountains of Snowdonia, Dolbadarn Castle was built by Welsh prince Llywelyn ap Iorwerth in the 13th century. Unlike many Welsh castles, it was built by the native Welsh rulers rather than invading Norman forces. Its round tower stands dramatically beside Llyn Padarn and represents the power and independence of medieval Welsh princes. Visitors can climb the tower, enjoy views over the lake and mountains, and combine the visit with some of Wales' finest walking routes. For outdoor travellers, Dolbadarn is one of the best examples of a castle experience combined with spectacular natural scenery.
