Trefriw is a small village on the lower slopes of Snowdonia, tucked above the valley of the River Conwy in Conwy, Wales. It sits within easy reach of other North Wales hubs such as Betws-y-Coed and the coastal town of Llandudno, making it a quiet base for exploring the national park and the Conwy valley.
Locally the village is known for its working heritage - the historic Trefriw Woollen Mills still produces and sells woven goods - and for mineral springs that gave it a 19th-century spa reputation. Today the economy mixes farming and tourism, with walks, waterfalls and nearby lakes drawing visitors; socially it retains a small, traditional community feel while being welcoming to walkers and heritage visitors to Snowdonia and North Wales.
