This Week at Elan

  • Our current opening hours are 9am until 4pm - seven days a week, with last food orders taken at 3pm.
  • Please note that due to a large rock fall, the railway cutting know as Devil's Gulch along the top part of the Elan Valley Trail (between Craig Goch Dam and Pen y Garreg Dam) is closed to all users until further notice.
  • From Monday 18th February: Llannerch y Cawr car park in the Claerwen Valley will be closed for the storage of timber. We would also advise avoiding Gro woodland for the next 6 weeks while tree felling takes place.
