Garn For (Mynydd Gwaith) and Trefor Quarry, Llyn Peninsula, North Wales - DJI AIR3 4K

The second location filmed on our recent North Wales Day out, and a beautiful walk in sunny, if windy, conditions from the Garn For car park on the Llyn Peninsula over the pass at Garn For (Mynydd Gwaith) and then into the abandoned and stunningly situated Trefor Granite Quarry. The walk is about 2 miles out, with a total gain of about 500ft, and the same back, along pretty good tracks through the purple-flowering heather that clads the hillside, watching the swifts skim the land in search of insects. The Quarry is huge, and spans about 800ft in height, literally bisecting Garn For just short of its summit, not an easy place to visit, but definitely worthwhile.

It had a population of 1,067 at the 2021 Census. Trefor is in the community of Trefor a Llanaelhaearn, and Llithfaen is nearby. There is a beach in Trefor and also a shop in the village centre. It was in the historic county of Caernarfonshire. Location and amenities Trefor is 9 miles (14 km) north of Pwllheli and 13 miles (21 km) south of Caernarfon. It is surrounded by the sea and mountains, overlooking Caernarfon Bay. Just off the main A499 road, Trefor has a small harbour and a beach with some sand. At the top of the beach is an emergency telephone to summon help in the event of a maritime emergency. The land behind the beach is made of boulder clay deposited during the last glaciation, and is being slowly eroded by the sea. Because of this land erosion, a large expanse of clay is exposed when the tide is out, which is dangerous to walk on. Rising steeply behind the village is Yr Eifl, a range of three hills that dominate the skyline. A granite quarry, known to the locals as Y Gwaith Mawr ("the large works"), Trefor Granite Quarry or the Yr Eifl Quarry, opened in 1850. The industrial narrow-gauge railway—Trefor Quarry railway—opened in 1865 and brought mined and refined rock from the quarry to the pier on the coast. From here it was transported via a conveyor belt onto ships, but the railway was gradually replaced by road transport. Large-scale industry ended with its closure in 1960, after which began the clean up: many of the buildings were demolished, rubble was either discarded beside the roads or/and buried, and the majority of the rail tracks were removed and reused as fence and gate posts, which can still be seen around the village. The rare properties of the granite within the quarry made it the perfect material to produce curling stones for the winter Olympics. Trefor is one of only two locations where this particular granite is found (the other being Ailsa Craig in Scotland). Tre'r Ceiri, the second-highest of the hills, has one of the best examples of an Iron Age settlement in Britain on its summit. Views from the summits, on a clear day, extend to Ireland, the whole of Cardigan Bay, Anglesey, Snowdonia, and the northern mountains of England. The central peak, the tallest at 561 metres (1,841 ft), is called Garn Ganol; the summit nearest the sea, and the lowest, is Garn For, home to the quarry.
