Coed Dolgarrog National Nature Reserve is a nature reserve which covers the steep western side of the Conwy Valley, around 10 kilometres south of Conwy and 6.5 kilometres north of Llanrwst.

Geography

Two huge volcanic cliffs loom amidst its wooded slopes, where lime trees can be found benefiting from the rock's richness and low acidity. The reserve is the largest oak woodland growing on this type of base in North Wales, and is important for some of Snowdonia’s specialities, such as arctic and alpine plants.
