Llyn Melynllyn (Welsh for '' yellow lake)'' is a lake on the edge of the Carneddau range of mountains in Snowdonia, North Wales. It lies at a height of just over , and has an area of some . Cliffs rise steeply from its western edge, up to the summit of Foel Grach, and down from which most of its feeder streams flow. A small dam was built at its northern end in 1887, but this was deliberately breached in 1970. The lake acts as a reservoir for the Llandudno area. Less than a kilometre to its north lies the larger Llyn Dulyn. The outflow form the lake is called Afon Melynllyn, this stream flowing north-east to join Afon Dulyn, itself a tributary of the river Conwy. == References == *''The Lakes of Eryri'' by Geraint Roberts, Gwasg Carreg Gwalch, 1985 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Llyn Melynllyn」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
