Ranger base and outdoor centre nestled between the dramatic Carneddau and Glyderau mountain ranges
Ogwen Cottage is a countryside hub for the Carneddau and Glyderau ranger team. Although the ranger base is only open on an ad hoc basis (depending on the rangers work schedule) visitors exploring nearby Cwm Idwal, Tryfan, Y Glyderau and Carneddau are welcome to call in for more information about the area.
This iconic building has long been associated with mountaineering and adventure, a tradition we’re maintaining by providing outdoor learning experiences on site in partnership with The Outward Bound Trust.
Most of our places run the Gift Aid on Entry scheme at their admission points.
Under this scheme, if you're not a member you have the choice of two entry tickets:
If the place runs Gift Aid on Entry, we'll offer you a clear choice between the Gift Aid Admission prices and the Standard Admission prices at the admission point. It's entirely up to you which ticket you choose.
Gift Aid Admission includes a 10 per cent or more voluntary donation. Gift Aid Admissions let us reclaim tax on the whole amount paid - an extra 25 per cent - potentially a very significant boost to our places' funds.
An extra £1 paid under the scheme can be worth over £3 to the National Trust as shown below:
Gift Aid | Standard | |
---|---|---|
Amount paid by visitor | £11.00 | £10.00 |
Tax refund from Government* | £2.75 | £0.00 |
Total received by the National Trust | £13.75 | £10.00 |
