Best walks in North Wales
North Wales is a treasure trove of natural wonders and captivating landscapes, offering an array of splendid walking trails that beckon guests from Haven holidays parks to explore and immerse themselves in the region's beauty.
In this article we’ll unveil some of the hidden gems of walking routes that will enrich your North Wales getaway.
Conwy Castle Walls Walk
Distance: 1 mile
Difficulty: easy
Step back in time as you embark on a unique journey along the historic walls of Conwy Castle. This leisurely walk offers a glimpse into the region's rich history and architectural marvels. As you stroll atop the well-preserved medieval walls, you'll be treated to panoramic views of Conwy's charming town, the picturesque harbour, and the majestic Conwy Estuary.
Llyn Peninsula Coastal Path - Porthdinllaen to Morfa Nefyn
Distance: 2.5 miles
Difficulty: moderate
One of the best short walks along the Llŷn Peninsula Coastal Path is the section from Porthdinllaen to Morfa Nefyn. This scenic route offers breathtaking coastal views, charming villages, and a glimpse of the rugged beauty of the peninsula. The walk is relatively short, usually taking less than an hour to complete, making it an ideal option for a leisurely exploration of the Llŷn Peninsula.
You'll pass by the iconic Ty Coch Inn at Porthdinllaen, which has been voted one of the world's best beach pubs, and enjoy views out over the Irish Sea and the picturesque landscape. It's a perfect introduction to the natural and cultural treasures of the Llŷn Peninsula.
Pistyll Rhaeadr Waterfall Trail
Distance: 3 miles
Difficulty: moderate
Prepare to be awe-inspired by the Pistyll Rhaeadr Waterfall which, at 240 feet tall, is one of Wales' tallest waterfalls. This moderately challenging trail guides you through enchanting woodlands, meadows, and rocky terrain, culminating in the mesmerising sight of the cascading waterfall. The thundering waters and the lush surroundings make for a captivating and rejuvenating experience.
Great Orme Historical Trails
Distance: 4 miles
Difficulty: hard
Uncover a hidden piece of history as you traverse the Great Orme. There are lots of different walks up and around the Great Orme summit in Llandudno. Our personal favourite is the Great Orme Historical Trail that offers spectacular views of Liverpool Bay, the Carneddau range, the Menai Strait and Anglesey. While you are there, make sure to enter the mines to explore the underground tunnels and chambers that were once at the heart of a bustling industry. There is a guided tour that offers insights into the lives of the miners and the significance of these mines in shaping the region's past.
Anglesey Coastal Path - South Stack Circular Walk
Distance: 1.5 miles
Difficulty: Moderate
Embark on a memorable circular walk that introduces you to the beauty of Anglesey's coastal landscapes. The South Stack Circular Walk takes you along the rugged cliffs, offering breathtaking views of the Irish Sea and the iconic South Stack Lighthouse. Marvel at the diverse birdlife that calls this area home and relish the sense of tranquillity that envelops you.

Let2offset - make no site fee payments until 2031
Let2offset is a contractual lettings product that offers eligible owners a guaranteed letting income at a preferential rate (calculated each year) in exchange for a stipulated number of letting breaks. It also allows eligible owners to pay their site fees and receive their letting income in 12 equal monthly instalments; the monthly site fee amount charged by Haven will be after deduction of the letting income.
‘Make no site fee payments when using Let2offset until 2031’ is available at 33 Haven parks excluding Burnham, Cardigan View, Far Grange, Garreg Wen, Lydstep Beach, Riviere Sands and Seaview. The letting income received will vary by make, model and location. The monthly site fee payment does not include running costs e.g. utilities, rates & insurance.
“Make no site fee payments when using Let2offset until 2031” is applicable to new and existing customer purchases of new Atlas Sahara 3 Bed or equivalent or superior grade holiday home purchases made through Haven where customers have also signed up to Haven’s Let2offset contract. It is not applicable to private sales and cannot be used in conjunction with our free Site Fee promotion. It is available across 40% of eligible Parks and applies when letting a new Atlas Sahara 3 Bed holiday home (or equivalent or superior grade for 15 weeks.
An example of how “Make no site fee payments when using Let2offset until 2031” operates under Let2offset is the purchase of an Atlas Sahara 3 Bed holiday home at Primrose Valley with a monthly site fee of £585.00 (includes purchasing discount of £45) and monthly letting income of £803.67. The monthly difference equates to £218.67, which will be credited to the owner's account. Both letting income and site fees are subject to yearly pricing reviews and the monthly site fee costs and letting income shown in the example are based on 2024 figures.
Modelled assumptions on expected annual site fee and letting income charges over the 7-year lettable life of the Atlas Sahara 3 Bed indicate that under Let2offset it is anticipated that these customers will continue to receive a monthly credit during this period, however, this is not guaranteed. The modelled assumptions are based on the historical performance of Haven over the past 5 years of trading.
