Bridge crossing the Alaw Estuary

Anglesey Walks: Llanfachraeth to Church Bay (Porth Swtan)

,

An enjoyable, mainly flat 11km (7 miles) walk which starts along the beautiful Alaw Estuary where the new bridge has been erected making access to this section of the Anglesey coastal path more easily accessible.

We head out from Llanfachraeth walking along the marshlands of the estuary to reach the large expanse of Traeth y Gribin and views over to Holyhead.

We continue along the coastline to the  stunning coves and beaches  of Porth Penrhyn Mawr, Porth Tywyn-Mawr and Porth Trwyn.  The section close to Church Bay has exciting exposed cliff paths.

Anglesey Walks: Four-Mile Bridge to Ravens Point (circular walk)

,

Once on the coast the highlights of this walk are the coastal rock formations, pretty coves, sandy beaches, sea-arches, the stone enclosure of Saint Gwenfaen’s Well and Rhoscolyn Head.

Starting at Four Mile Bridge (Pontrhydbont) we walk along the edge of the marsh, onto fields and past farm buildings. We continue along country lanes and venture onto a woodland trail that opens up at Silver Bay.  From here we take the coastal path up onto the headland and continue past the sandy bay of Borthwen towards the spectacular cliffs at Rhoscolyn Head.  As we head towards Ravens Point, we come to pretty coves in the bay of Porth-y-Garan.  From Raven’s point we head back inland along the edge of some holiday developments, across farmland towards Four-Mile Bridge.

The rocky Ynys y Fydlyn

Anglesey Walks: Mynachdy to Church Bay (circular walk)

,

An enjoyable short walk that takes in some breath-taking scenery.

Our walk starts along a lane onto a grassy path that leads us down to the secluded cove and dramatic sea arch of Ynys y Fydlyn. A pretty cove with crystal clear waters.

We then head up onto some of the most majestic steep cliffs, walking along the rocky ridges of Porth y Bribys, Porth y Dwfr and Clegir Mawr (National Trust Land) to the secluded cove of Church Bay (Porth Swtan).

We walk back along country lanes to Mynachdy.
