What is River Teifi?
The '''River Teifi''' is a river in west Wales. It starts in the hills above the town of [[Tregaron]] and then flows into a large marsh called [[Tregaron bog]]. This bog helps to stop flow in the river being too extreme. It stores up [[flood]] water when it is raining hard and it lets water go during dry weather. The water in the River Teifi is very good quality. The river supports lots of [[wild-life]] including [[Salmon]] and [[Trout]]. The wildlife is so special that the whole river has been given special protetion by [[scientist]]s to stop it being damaged.<ref>{{cite web | url=https://artuk.org/discover/artworks/salmon-leap-cenarth-falls-cardiganshire-47218 | title=Salmon Leap, Cenarth Falls, Cardiganshire &#124; Art UK }}</ref> The river passes through small towns such as [[Lampeter]] and [[Newcastle Emlyn]] before it reaches the sea at [[Cardigan]]. For the last few miles before it reaches Cardigan, the river runs through a deep gorge called [[Cigerran Gorge]]. Some people still fish for Salmon here using a very ancient boat called a [[Coracle]]. ==References== {{Reflist}} {{DEFAULTSORT:Teifi, River}} [[Category:Rivers of Wales]]
