Llŷn Coastal Path

Llŷn Coastal Path
Llŷn Coastal Path

Here is a golden opportunity to experience the open but intricate country that is the Llŷn Peninsula.

By following the Llŷn Coastal Path you can enjoy the splendour of the area’s diverse landscape, there are small coves and wide expanses of sand, rugged cliffs, ever changeable seas, small harbours and wild heath land.

You will be walking in the footsteps of the early pilgrims and experience an area that has history and culture deep in the soil you will also experience countryside rich in wildlife.

In its entirety the Llŷn Coastal Path is 146 km or 84 miles long, extending from Caernarfon along the north Llŷn coast to Uwchmynydd and then along the southern coast to Porthmadog.

The majority of the route follows public footpaths with sections on quiet lanes, permissive paths and beaches. Whilst, most of the route is coastal, in places it moves inland and on to higher ground enabling you to see stunning views across the whole of the Peninsula.

Although the Coastal Path has been established, work to develop and improve the route is on going. The following attachments show the Llŷn Coastal Path as of Summer 2007.
