Walks Around Llandudno and Prestatyn Guidebook

by: David Berry
Llandudno lies on a peninsula between the impressive carboniferous limestone headlands of the Great and Little Orme. From Llandudno the beautiful North Wales coast extends via other seaside resorts to Prestatyn. Together they offer stunning coastal scenery and views best appreciated on foot. The 30 walks in this book comprehensively explore the landscapes and history of this part of the North Wales Coast. They visit sites of historic interest and feature low limestone hills, woodland, beaches, dunes, town trails, and river estuaries. They include five linear walks linked to local bus services following the new Wales Coast Path from Prestatyn to Conwy. Distances are between 1.5 and 8.5 miles.
Each walk chapter includes an overview description with details of how to get to the start. This is followed by detailed route finding instructions in numbered paragraphs which correspond to points on a sketch map. Some additional background information is provided.
