Description
Embark on a scenic adventure along the Llyn Peninsula, a region celebrated for its dramatic cliffs, beautiful beaches, and rich history. This tour takes you from Bangor to Aberdaron, covering 65 miles (104 km) in either a 6-night demanding or an 8-night moderate route. With daily distances ranging between 8.5 miles (13.5 km) and 18 miles (29 km), this walk offers a blend of challenging ascents and more relaxed sections.
The journey begins in Bangor, a historical city by the Menai Strait, and follows the rugged coastline towards Caernarfon, with its iconic castle. As you traverse the peninsula, you’ll pass through quaint villages like Nefyn and Tudweiliog, where you can pause to soak in the culture of rural Wales. Along the way, enjoy the contrasts of landscapes, from the wide beaches of Dinas Dinlle to the windswept cliffs near Whistling Sands (Porthor).
Whether you choose the more demanding version with longer walking days or the moderate tour with a gentler pace, you’ll be rewarded with spectacular views over the Irish Sea and Snowdonia. Each night, rest in carefully selected accommodations, providing comfort and relaxation after days filled with natural beauty and exploration. This tour is ideal for both seasoned hikers and those looking for a balance between moderate and demanding walks.
