Caer Rufeinig Segontium — Attraction in Caernarfon

I had a 2 weeks holiday in Wales in 2019 and wanted to visit this place on the day when I visited the castle, too. So I parked next to the castle, and after visiting that, I walked uphill on the streets to find the roman fort. I could not find any opening hours anywhere - Google map, Tripadvisor or Visit-Wales website, was not stated any hours. It was a Saturday about 1pm, and I found the place closed. Even on the gate there was not a sign showing opening times just a big padlock. Only a notice not to climb on the monument, but the gate was locked otherwise. I just walked near the fence a few minutes trying to find someone on the ground, and met on the street another disappointed visitor, so we shared our frustration about the lack of the opening times anywhere. In the meantime - which was just 2 minutes maybe - we have seen a man with his 8-10 years old son climb over the fence and go into the ground... No Comment. Maybe this was the way to get in??? Very disappointing visit, and that I walked a lot uphill to find the big nothing. At least on Google map should be stated the opening hours. Hopefully it has been changed since then, otherwise no...

We walked up from the town centre. Takes about 10-15mins up a moderately steep hill. The fort is on the left hand side.

This is a Cadw managed site and the website says that it's open 10-4 daily. What it doesn't specifically mention is that the small museum is closed. No mention is made of the museum status on the signage outside the fort nor the Cadw website or whether it will reopen again. Please, Cadw - get you act together and update your comms.

Upon entering the site there are the foundations of the barrack blocks and the headquarters building including the underground strong room where the soldiers pay and the legionary standards were kept. The remains of two of the four gateways can also be seen including a small stretch of the permitter wall. The remains of the bathhouse can be seen in the field across the road although this section of the fort site is off limits to visitors, which is a shame.

It's definitely worth a look if...

When we visited this attraction the front gate was open but the information centre was closed. No opening times were displayed. Bring your imagination when you visit as there is only one information board at the back of the information centre. (Maybe there's more information in the centre!!!) The best photo of this area is on Google maps, just so you get the size of the area in perspective. Unfortunately the road and houses were built on the site. We didn't visit the baths over the road as there's no information on how or where to get in. The locals know how to get in both sites as dogs where being walked in the fort and lads where playing football in the baths. Do you think these ruins will last another...
