Penmaenmawr to Conwy
A station-to-station walkCaernarfonshireWales
The scenery is magnificent. A peaceful route mostly away from traffic that climbs three-quarters of the way up Conwy Mountain on a stony track, with uneven and muddy paths and magnificent views. There is a fair amount of walking on roads without pavements, mostly quiet or in 30mph zones and the ascent and descent are not too steep. Overlaps slightly with the Wales Coast Path High-Level Route. Regular daily trains and buses link Conwy and Penmaenmawr. The Sychnant Pass is a highlight.
Aberconwy House: Siop lyfrau ail law mewn tŷ masnachol o'r 14eg ganrif / Second-hand bookshop in a 14th-century merchant's house (National Trust; 1h to visit).
Warnings: Some roads have no pavement; mostly quiet but stay alert. The bridge over the railway near Conwy is narrow with no pavement, so wait for a gap in the traffic. Higher paths through the heather can be narrow and uncomfortable. Can be muddy.
