Blaenau Ffestiniog tourist information
Blaenau Ffestiniog is a former slate-mining village and consists of one main road with all the others leading of it.
A narrow-gauge railway, the Festiniog Railway , was built from Blaenau Ffestiniog to take the slate down to the sea at Porthmadog. The railway ceased operation after some 110 years of operation due to the run down of the slate industry, road competition, and the Second World War. It was fully reopened to Blaenau Ffestiniog in 1982 and is one of the town's main tourist attractions.
Further information on the town can be found at the Main wikipedia site or on
