Tourism guide to Bala, at the head of Llyn Tegid in Wales

About Bala

Bala is located at the head of Llyn Tegid, its famous lake, and is an ideal location for touring both North and Mid Wales. It is within a one hour drive of the coastal regions and attractions.

The area is famous for water-sport activities which centre around the lake and nearby rivers, along with fishing, walking, cycling and other activities. A miniature steam railway is well worth the ride, and accommodation offers value for money all year round.

Bala is a town steeped in history, founded by Royal Charter around 1310 by Roger de Mortimer, with a street layout still marked out in square courts today.
