Walking holidays in Wales

Anglesey, Ynys Môn Coastal Path falls within a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) which covers 95% of the coast. It passes through landscape that includes a mixture of farmland, coastal heath, dunes, salt-marsh, foreshore, cliffs and a few small pockets of woodland. This includes a National Nature Reserve(NNR).

The Beacons Way ~ Cambrian Way Southern Section Walking Holidays The new Beacons Way, launched May 2005 is a 100mls (161km) mountain walking route through the beautiful Brecon Beacons National Park, the most spectacular mountain area of South Wales.

Cambrian Way Walking Holidays The Cambrian way is the classic High Route across Wales, a challenging 274 mile (440 km) Coast-to-Coast walk from Cardiff on the south coast to Conwy on the north. The route crosses areas of mainly remote mountains, hills and valleys, mile upon mile of unspoilt nature from the Black Mountains, Brecon Beacons, through the Cambrian Mountains to the spectacular mountain ranges of the Snowdonia National Park.

Carreg Trust Christian Retreats on Bardsey Island. Carreg Trust formed by a group of Christians who believe that God is calling us to preserve and develop it as a place of contemplation and prayer. A place for both guided and individual retreats and above all a place set apart for peace and development of the inner life.

Dylan Thomas Trail For many, Dylan Marlais Thomas was the epitome of the wild Welshman. That man amongst men fought with words to express his deepest feelings for the earth and people that were his Wales.

Glyndwrs Way Walking Holidays is an outstanding 132 mile (212km) walking route that runs through some of the finest unspoilt scenery in Mid-Wales. The trail is named after Owain Glyndwr, the legendary Welsh leader who led a successful revolt against English domination in 1400.

Mawddach Trail Walking Holidays The two RSPB reserves in the Mawddach Valley offer superb scenery and beautiful walks through oak wood and scrubland. In the spring pied flycatchers, wood warblers and redstarts can be heard in Coed Garth Gell. Ravens and buzzards are present throughout the year. The trail at Arthog Bog is accessible to wheelchair users.

North Wales Path winds for 60 miles along the coast from Bangor to Prestatyn, mostly along public footpaths. It takes you to traditional seaside resorts which you can reach from the path, and also gives you stunning mountain and coastal views. Near Prestatyn the route follows the Prestatyn Dyserth Way, a 2 2/3 mile former railway. Between the Prestatyn Dyserth and the Offas Dyke Path National Trail, Bishopswood is an SSSi, and the limestone hill Graig Fawr is owned by the National Trust. Some of the most stunning views on the path come from Little Ormes Head, where you can look over Snowdonia, and the top of the cliffs of Great Ormes Head – 680 feet high and popular with climbers.

Offas Dyke Path Walking Holidays One of the earliest of the National Trails this renowned long distance footpath must rate as the best walk in Britain. The 177 mile (285km) route extends from the top to the bottom coast of Wales and follows an 8C earthwork built by King Offa sometime between 756 and 796 to contain marauding Welsh tribes.

Pembrokeshire Coast Path Walking Holidays The Path twists and turns its way around this dramatic coast following the entire Pembrokeshire coastline for 143 miles/ 299 km. It is an unforgettable experience walking along cliff tops, enjoying the wild and spectacular coastal scenery ~ spring flowers carpeting the cliffs, beaches, fishing villages and offshore islands with their wealth of marine and bird life.

Pilgrim Trail ~ Lleyn Coastal Path ~ Castle to Castle Walk Walking Holidays This walk has the precedent of being an ancient route, tracing the spiritual journey taken in early centuries by pilgrims from Bangor to Aberdaron and crossing to Bardsey island, the mystical Isle of a 1000 Saints, reputedly the burial place of many early Christian saints.

Snowdonia Trail ~ Cambrian Way Northern Section Walking Holidays The Snowdonia Trail is an outstanding walking holiday of approximately 140mls (220km), for the connoisseur of unspoilt mountain scenery. Taking in some of the most scenic and spectacular sections of the mountain routes of Wales, including Snowdon and the major summits, we believe it is unrivalled for fine mountain walking and atmosphere.

The Three Castles Walk walking from Castle to Castle is the perfect walking break and antidote for modern day pressures. Here you will escape into the tranquility of this quiet and little known corner of Monmouthshire, where rural life has changed little over the centuries.

Wye Valley Walk Walking Holidays is an easy grade continuous walking trail that follows the river valley from Chepstow to Rhayader and continuing to its source near Pumlumon in the hills above Aberystwyth. The 136 mile (218km) route criss-crosses the lower border between Wales and England through a wonderful variety of scenery.
