The path to the right was the former track bed of the ''Aberystwith and Welsh Coast Railway'', part of the Ruabon to Barmouth Line. It closed to passengers on Monday 18 January 1965.
The station was beyond the toll bridge.
The path now forms the Llwybr Mawddach (or "Mawddach Trail").
The Mawddach Trail :: SH6515

The Mawddach Trail (Welsh: Llwybr Mawddach) is a cycle path following part of the former trackbed of the Ruabon to Barmouth railway line, closed in the 1960s. The trail runs for 8 miles between Dolgellau and Morfa Mawddach railway station, with a continuation across the bridge to Barmouth. For much of its length it runs close to the picturesque Mawddach estuary.

The trail forms part of National Cycle Network Route 8 (Lôn Las Cymru).
