A walk in one of Wales’ National Parks guarantee’s thrilling views, regardless of whether it’s the dramatic mountainous scenery of Snowdonia in the North, or the soothing coastal landscape of Pembrokeshire to the South.

Alternatively, the option is there to explore one of Wales’ many Areas of Natural Beauty. For a tougher walk, the Clwydian Hills and Llyn Peninsula include ascents up gorgeous hills, while Gower boasts a friendlier route combined with refreshing sea air. Or, for those looking for a peaceful escape through the countryside, the Cambrian Mountains is a less popular walking spot but provides a range of challenging and relaxed routes.
