Although the Afon Crafnant is paddled, the section through Trefriw looks unpromising, as not far upstream of this cascade is a large vertical weir which looks unrunnable and difficult to portage. Probably this bottom section is depleted of water, and it does look really rocky and overhung by trees. Not far below this, it hits the flood plain of the Afon Conwy and flattens out completely.
