Borth y Gest Beach
Tourist attraction
👍👍 A beautiful spot for a family, or solo traveler. I believe there is a car park? But there are lots of roads you can park on. You can follow paths along the top of the beaches which drop down at the different parts. I’m not sure if the tide is in whether you can walk through the different beaches fro...

Aberglaslyn - National Trust
Nature preserve
👍👍 What a glorious trail to walk! Throughly recommended the 3 mile trail as described on the National Trust website for anyone with a reasonable level of fitness and steady on their feet. We did it with some 60 somethings, some 30 somethings and some under 11s (all older than 6). The children spent the...

Sand Beaches
Tourist attraction
👍👍 You really can’t go wrong with this wonderfully unspoilt golden sandy beach approx 3 miles long!
Even in peak season dog walkers are still allowed to walk to the south (left side of the beach).
Large enough car park with toilets, although could do with a cafe or pop up coffee thing. However, just...

Black Rock Llamas
Animals
👍👍 We had the best time here. Sophie was an incredible guide. I would recommend to anyone, worth every single penny! My children (11 and 12) loved it too.
The Llama's are so well behaved and such a beautiful animal, we learnt so much about them and we now have a new favourite animal! We did Zipworld...

Morfa Bychan
Tourist attraction
👍👍 Absolutely stunning. It is hidden so probably explains why it’s quite. We had to walk through a golf course to get there but once you do it’s amazing.

Gwaith Powdwr North Wales Wildlife Trust Nature Reserve
Nature preserve
👍👍 This is a nature reserve built on an old nitro glycerin site. It's a bit of a hidden gem, mainly used by local dog walkers but it is beautiful and often quiet (especially out of season). The walk to the old pendulum is a gentle climb on a tarmac road but there is much more to explore. Do take th...

Ynysypandy Slate Mill
Museum
👍 Nice open site of an old slate mill. The shell of the building is in good repair, looked after by Cadw. Approach is along single track lanes. There are steps up to the building, but you can also approach on the level if you walk up the lane to the side and come through a farm gate. There's some park...

Ceunant Llennyrch National Nature Reserve
Nature preserve
👍 Beautiful woodland to walk through. Obviously, a bit of a shame the nuclear power station, hums loudly and isn't shielded from view by trees. But, just don't look left and you'll be fine.
Also, only a layby to park in a bit up the road. And no pavement from the layby to the entrance. The entrance is...

Portmeirion North Wales
Tourist attraction
👍👍 First time visiting this place, very pretty quirky village, lots of buildings to look around. The terrain is quite steep from top to bottom. For those that remember the prisoner the memories will come flooding back, keep looking over your shoulder for the big ball chasing you ! Most of the building...

Llanfair Slate Caverns
Tourist attraction
👍👍 Absolutely loved this mine. Tucked away from view up a hill on a single track, this is a gem well worth visiting. It was £8.75 for adult entry when we visited. We were given hard hats and a torch, and the route was explained. It was pretty quiet when we got there, perhaps only 4 cars in the car park...

Welsh Highland Heritage Railway
Rail museum

Plas Brondanw Gardens
Garden
👍👍 What a lovely hidden gem. £2 to park, there is a pay and display but the instructions are in Welsh. If it's any use, you only put in your last 3 letters on your number plate! £5.50 entry which you pay in the cafe. The gardens, although only small, are lovely and very well maintained and the views ar...

👍 A lovely surprise. The museum is devoted to his interesting and varied life and causes. Next door is the cottage where he grew up and close by is his unusal burial plot. A must for anyone interested in British and Welsh history. Very helpful and friendly staff.
