"Wow, a great waterfall, offering you the awesome experience with a different point of view, as you can go underneath, you'll get wet but it's worth it."
"Visiting SGWD YR EIRA Falls was a truly enchanting experience that transported me to a world of natural beauty and tranquility."
"The best part is your ability to walk behind the waterfall, enjoy the refreshing spray of the water and the sound of nature."
"You can walk behind the waterfall and take some amazing photos!"
"It's a beautiful place, better after its been raining."
"Absolutely spectacular and the water is clear and clean."
"One of the best waterfalls I've ever seen! So beautiful!!"
Cons:
"Very popular waterfall that you have to queue for your turn to stand behind."
"Please be very very careful on the stones leading to the waterfall. Head split open is just an oversight away!"
"The waterfall itself is on a rocky part of the river where space gets limited when lots of people are around."
"Very busy and treacherous route down, one person fell and had to get mountain rescue."
"The main waterfall section itself can be difficult to get to depending on which direction you come from so planning needed if taking young children or persons with mobility issues."
"This place is a serious health and safety hazard and should be closed for public until it's safe, it's only a matter of time any accident happen and place will be shut."
"The waterfall was spectacular, the paths were dangerous, steps down to one of the waterfalls were covered in slippery mud."
Accessibility & Facilities
Pros:
"For the parking, if you want to save 5 GBP, come early and park at Colin y Rhos parking, it is free."
"It is fairly near the M4 so easily reached from far and wide."
"Highly recommended!!! Easy to follow trails which are very well sign posted."
"Beautiful walk, two car parks available (£5 for day) with toilets and coffee facilities, numbered posts to keep you on track."
"There are a couple of large carparks available, any these you can pay by card or cash. The price for these is £4."
"Parking was £4 and we got a map for £1 which was definitely worth it."
"Car park is £5 card payment at the machine which is great."
Cons:
"There are toilets in the official car park but they really are not the best (speaking only of the men's)."
"Just expect the most basic of toilet facilities and bring your £ coins for the £4 car park daily charge as it won't take card."
"Toilets at the main carpark were worse than terrible. Portaloos full of rubbish and very dirty."
"Beware, the small car park(as its listed in google maps) has no facilities except for two portable toilets which can be a put-off if you use them."
"No toilets except at parking and it is a long way (about 20-30min walk) from the end till you reach the parking."
"One bad thing is a car parking. There are No car parks for it, you have to park on the side of an road."
"We found the map to be fairly useless and the minimal signage around the route is even worse."
Trail Quality & Safety
Pros:
"A beautiful place to trek with all ages. The falls can be challenging but not an impossible trek for most."
"Well marked trails and a very good day out."
"The paths are pretty well maintained while still keeping the natural feel to them."
"Some steep access paths to river and falls, with steps and handrails."
"The path is well signed with info boards along the way."
"Paths are well marked but steep, uneven and slippery in many places."
"The trail is signposted so you are guided easily to the main waterfalls."
Cons:
"It's not easy to get down to some of the waterfalls as the steps are steep but well worth it once you're there."
"Walk wasn't too strenuous, but most of the route was very very muddy."
"It can be steep in steps. So good health is also needed. If you struggle with walking, it's not for you."
"This walk is for the physically fit and healthy. This is not suitable for the occasional walker or physicality impaired."
"Some paths to the waterfalls were really wet and slippery."
"The majority of the route to get there is simple and on loose stone chippings. As you get about 50m towards the waterfall you need to take some very steep and very slippery steps down to the waterfall."
"The rocks around the deep descent to the waterfall are incredibly slippy and wet."
Family & Group Experience
Pros:
"This place is one of our favourite places to go if we have a day together as a family."
"Very nice walk, not as difficult as it is mentioned on the various Web sites and signs in the parkings."
"Very tranquil place, beautiful views & scenery."
"This waterfall is absolutely beautiful. I and my family include my 5 years old daughter walked the trail to see the four waterfalls and we were really enjoyed."
"Easy parking. Take your own food. Good boots or trainers required. Good for groups."
"An amazing place to visit."
"Great day with plenty to see, this is a med to hard walk but worth the effort."
Cons:
"There was also a lot of rubbish left by people that are too lazy to carry it back home it's disgusting it's not hard to take your rubbish with you."
"It was just a queue of people filing in and out!!"
"Very busy and treacherous route down, one person fell and had to get mountain rescue."
"Also went summer before last (Jul 2022) at the start of the heatwave when it was horrendous, too many smokers and people skinny dipping!"
"It's all rocky and unsteady paths so can be dangerous for young children."
"Just a shame it’s so busy and people were leaving litter."
"Was very busy and hard to social distant going past people on the walk path. They are narrow along cliff edge."
