The little town of BALA (Y Bala), twenty miles west of Llangollen, is set at the northern end of Wales' largest natural lake, Llyn Tegid (Bala Lake). The town was renowned for its piety in the nineteenth century, but these days it has become a major watersports centre, and there's little else to do here now. The lake is perfect for windsurfing in particular, due to the winds buffeting up the Talyllyn valley, which slices thirty miles northeast from the coast, along the Bala geological fault.
Slalom kayak fans can make for the Canolfan Tryweryn white-water course, four miles west up the A4212. When water is released from the dam, around two hundred days a year, it crashes down a mile and a half through the slalom site, the venue for frequent summer-weekend competitions and commercial white-water rafting trips (tel 01678/521083). It is a fairly steep £10 for a single heart-stopping run down the roughest part, but for a minimum of £150 a group of up to seven can rent a raft and instructor for two hours, or about four runs. Down on the shores of Llyn Tegid, by the tourist office, the Bala Adventure and Watersports Centre (tel 01678/521059) runs courses and rents equipment for windsurfing, kayaking and sailing .
The only public transport access is on bus #94, which runs from Llangollen to Dolgellau, stopping on Bala's High Street. The tourist office (Easter-Oct daily 10am-6pm; Nov-March Fri-Mon 10am-4pm; tel 01678/521021) is on Pensarn Road on the lakeside, five minutes' walk away. Bala has plenty of places to stay , or you can make the most of the surrounding countryside by staying in the Vale of Edeirnion, northeast of the town.
