The nearby woods of Coed Garth Gell are an RSPB reserve.

Taicynhaeaf is located at the other end of the Penmaenpool toll bridge so the the facilities at Penmaenpool are close at hand.

Taicynhaeaf is a convenient location to join the Mawddach Way or the Mawddach Trail (the Dolgellau to Barmouth "Railway Walk"). It also sits close to the South Snowdonia Greenway, a 43 km route running from Trawsfynydd down to the coast at Barmouth.

For something a little different, why not explore some of the remains of 20th century military activity in the area. From hill-top memorials to beach defences, there are over 50 different sites in and around the Mawddach Estuary to be explored on foot, by bike or by car. See here for further details.
