Scenery is strikingly similar to that of Switzerland's Montreux or Interlaken
Surrounded by gorgeous mountains, lakes, and lush woodlands, Betws-y-Coed in North Wales is a must-see location for its picturesque nature.
For mountain lovers lucky enough to have experienced the Alps first-hand, this is as close as you come in Britain to something that would not be out of place near Switzerland's Montreux or Interlaken, the Mirror reports. Once dominated by lead and zinc mines, you can see this legacy throughout the area thanks to the old engine houses and reservoirs. Head to Cyffty Mine for a short trail around the abandoned lead mine and Dolwyddelan for views of Snowdonia’s peaks.
The River Conwy drops through a Victorian fish ladder into a narrow ravine forming rapids and cascades. But be careful while there, the gorge is a protected wildlife site and has a large population of rare ferns and lichens. Flowering plants include globeflower and early purple orchid while otters have been seen in the area.
Visitors can enjoy a picnic with a panoramic mountain view at Cae'n y Coed or have lunch by a lake on the scenic Llyn Geirionydd and Llyn Sarnau scenic trails which take you around two lakes.
