Y Tarennau
The twin summits known collectively as the Tarennau* seen across the Afon Dyfi at Glandyfi 8km south of Machynlleth. Bathed in sunlight on the left is Tarren Hendre* 634m while there seems to be a snow shower on Tarren y Gesail* 667m on the right. The river at this point is tidal and only a couple of bends away from the estuary proper. On the right is Glandyfi Junction with its platform lights and signalling mast, here the Cambrian Coast Railway splits with the north bound line crossing the bridge to commence its beautiful coast hugging journey to Pwllheli, the other line continues south to Aberystwyth.
