| Description |
Llangorse Lake, Brecon Beacons National Park, Powys, Wales, UK Llangorse Lake (Welsh: Llyn Syfaddon, variant: Llyn Syfaddan) is the largest natural lake in Wales, and is situated in the Brecon Beacons National Park, near to the town of Brecon and the village of Llangors. The lake is famous for its coarse fishing (particularly pike), watersports, the afanc (nicknamed 'Gorsey') and the only example of a crannog in Wales. Llangorse Lake is also one of the most mentioned sites in Welsh folklore. It is a site of international conservation importance. Llangorse Lake is a eutrophic glacial lake with a 5 miles (8 km) circumference covering an area of 327 acres (1.32 km2). The lake is 1-mile (1.6 km) long and 505 feet (154 m) above sea level. The lake is sited between the basins of the River Wye to the north and the River Usk to the south, and was formed by debris deposited by melting glaciers trapping water on a plateau over time. |
