Conwy Town Walls

Conwy Town Walls

Conwy Town Walls are part of the impressive UNESCO World Heritage Site for Conwy Castle & the Iron Ring of Castles in North Wales. They are the most complete of their kind in Europe and provide fantastic views across the town and over to the medieval castle. Walk along the walls and take in the 21 towers and 3 gateways – so much history for a free day out!

 

Alice in Wonderland Trail

Back in the 1860s, the real Alice in Wonderland who inspired Lewis Carroll, Alice Liddell, spent many of her summer holidays in Llandudno. But whilst records aren’t clear on this, Llandudno has been proud of the connection since 1993 when their first statue of a white rabbit was built. 

Now, you can follow the Alice Town Trail, which includes over 50 figures and statues of Lewis Carroll’s characters. Download the Alice Town Trail app or just find them around town!

Pontcysyllte Aqueduct

The Pontcysylle Aqueduct is in Llangollen. This remarkable achievement was designed and built by Thomas Telford and Williams Jessop during the industrial revolution. You can walk along the aqueduct if you can bear it – it’s very high! Just try not to look down, and remember your camera. 

Whilst you’re in Llangollen, you could go for a walk along the River Dee, or take a look at the ruins at Castell Dinas Bran. 

 

Whatever you decide to visit, have a lovely time, and enjoy your stay in North Wales. Hwyl Fawr!
