Swallow Falls
These famous waterfalls on the Afon Llugwy are popular with visitors from around the world eager to see their dramatic beauty. The falls can be reached by a narrow but spectacular path that winds through ancient woodland.
Zip World Forest
'Dramatic' comes to mind again with this adventure centre, which appeals to more daring travellers. It offers the chance to zip line across caverns, on a 'zip safari' across the treetops. There are activities for children, including Bounce Below, a bouncy trampoline playground set in an old mine.
Fairy Glen
Providing inspiration for artists and poets alike, Fairy Glen is a secluded gorge on the River Conwy. Although it’s a 15-minute walk up a narrow and sometimes steep path, the trek is well worth it as the area exudes ancient Welsh magic.
Gwydir Forest
Gwydir Forest, set deep in Snowdonia National Park, is full of old miners’ tracks, cycle trails, and forest walks suitable for everyone. Gwydir Forest is home to a wide variety of birdlife and wildlife, making it a perfect day out for the whole family, whether you prefer bird-watching, cycling, or horse riding.
St. Michael's Old Church
The oldest building in Betws-y-Coed, St. Michael's originates from the 14th century. The little church is located on the banks of the River Conwy and is popular with visitors throughout the year for its history and charm. Of particular interest to many is the stone effigy of Gruffydd ap Dafydd Goch.
