Huw Llwyd`s Pulpit is a column of rock in the River Cynfal above the Cynfal Waterfall. Huw Llwyd was a sorcerer who lived in the early 17th Century at a nearby farmhouse called Cynfal Fawr. He used to stand on the rock to recite poetry, preach sermons and converse with spirits. He claimed he was safe from evil while on the rock because the devil was afraid of water. A footpath from Llan Ffestiniog leads to The River Cynfal and a path that descends to the waterfall.
