About the River Afon Tryweryn
The Afon Tryweryn is one of the main tributaries of the River Dee. It starts at Llyn Tryweryn in Snowdonia National Park and runs about 12 miles to meet the Dee at Bala, roughly half a mile downstream of Llyn Tegid.
The river was dammed in 1965 to form the reservoir of Llyn Celyn, which drowned the village of Capel Celyn. Water is stored in winter, when flows are high, and let out through the summer to keep the Dee flowing, so the river can rise quickly when releases are made. The upper section is modified whitewater, and the national whitewater centre is here, so canoeists and rafters share the river.
The Afon Tryweryn holds wild brown trout, with grayling in the lower reaches and migrating salmon.
