Go for a Walk

Coastal Walks

Use the 84-mile section of the Wales Coast Path to explore the cliffs and coves around the Llyn Peninsula.  The path follows public footpaths, small rural roads and along the beaches from Caernarfon along the north shore to Aberdaron before following the south coast of the peninsula to Porthmadog passing right by Plas Heli and the Hafan Pwllheli Marina on the way.   Choose a short circular walk, a full day or take a few days to walk all the way around.

Snowdonia Walks

With the foot of Snowdon just 19 miles away why not use the Llyn Peninsular as a base to explore the magnificent Snowdonia mountain range.  From short, gentle strolls to strenuous, steep climbs Snowdonia has something for everyone.  Climb the highest mountain in England and Wales (which is very achievable and suitable for families) or challenge yourself to the Welsh 3000s – climb the 15 mountains over 3,000 within 24 hours!
