Welcome to Beddgelert!
First I’m going to give you some
information about the area and what
you can do here.
As you probably know the village is
famous for the tombstone of one of
Wales’ most famous dogs. The village
in fact has this dog’s name: Gelert.
You can find the tombstone in the
graveyard next to the church.
If you like children’s stories, a very
E E X E R C I S E S
famous children’s writer also had a
house here. You can visit the house
from nine o’clock to five o’clock every
day except Sundays.
If you prefer to do outdoor activities,
then you can go to the outdoor centre
and ask about canoeing or even rock
climbing. They can organise both
group and individual lessons.
The Snowdonia National Park has
some great places for walking, or you
can hire a mountain bike and go
cycling.
Any more questions - just ask!

Hi Evan,
My town is called Weybridge, because
there is an important bridge over the
river. There is a famous singer from
my town. We go to the park in the
evening. What about you?
