Wondrous waterfalls of Wales
Our seven glorious Wales holiday parks are divided between the North and South coast of Wales, providing the perfect gateway to explore the breathtaking waterfalls that decorate the Welsh countryside.
From cascading torrents hidden within lush forests to majestic falls framed by rugged cliffs, these natural wonders offer a serene escape for visitors seeking a connection with nature and often form viewpoints on some of the best walking routes in the country.
Pistyll Rhaeadr
Address: Tanypistyll, Llanrhaeadr-ym-Mochnant, Oswestry SY10 0BZ
East of Snowdonia National Park is Pistyll Rhaeadr, Wales' tallest waterfall, plunging 80 metres in three majestic stages. Surrounded by verdant hills and woodlands, this enchanting waterfall provides a picturesque setting for a tranquil day trip. Enjoy a scenic walk to the falls, capturing the beauty of the Berwyn Mountains along the way, before you settle down for refreshments, at the nearby tearoom on reaching the falls.
Aber Falls
Address: Abergwyngregyn, Llanfairfechan LL33 0LP
Situated in the foothills of the Carneddau mountain range in the very north of Snowdonia. A well-marked trail leads you through beautiful countryside to this 36-metre cascade. The falls are surrounded by lush vegetation, and you’ll be able to take in panoramic views of the Snowdonia National Park.
Conwy Falls
Address: A5, Betws-y-Coed LL24 0PN
Nestled in the heart of Snowdonia National Park, Conwy Falls, or Rhaeadr Y Graig Lwyd, is within an hour’s drive from Greenacres Holiday Park. Set amidst ancient woodlands, the falls are a spectacular sight, with the Conwy River tumbling over rugged rocks. Enjoy the woodland trails, viewing platforms and footbridges that offer stunning vantage points of the falls and surrounding gorge.
Swallow Falls
Address: Snowdonia National Park, Swallow Falls, Betws-y-Coed LL24 0DW
Reached in under an hour from Hafan y Mor, Swallow Falls is another popular attraction surrounded by ancient forest. The Afon Llugwy River dramatically descends in a series of frothing cascades, providing a captivating natural spectacle. A narrow, rocky but well-maintained footpath leads up to the viewpoints of these impressive falls.
Sgwd Yr Eira Waterfall
Address: Neath SA11 5US
The highlight of the renowned 'Waterfall Country' walk in the Brecon Beacons, Sgwd Yr Eira, meaning 'fall of snow' in Welsh, cascades like a delicate veil of water over a 15-metre cliff. What sets this waterfall apart is the opportunity to walk behind it, providing a truly remarkable experience. Exercise caution on the rocky, wet, and slippery path behind the falls. Make sure you wear sturdy walking boots and waterproofs for a safe exploration.
Tresaith Beach Waterfall
Address: Afon Saith, Cardigan SA43 2JL
Just a 20-minute drive down the coast from Quay West Holiday Park, Tresaith boasts a captivating waterfall where the river meets the sea. Venturing below the waterfall reveals another beach but beware of tides that may cut off access.
Cardigan Bay, renowned for dolphin and seal sightings, adds to the allure of this coastal gem. Visiting Tresaith Beach Waterfall is a magical sensory experience, allowing you to hear the powerful rush of water, catch glimpses of rainbows in the sunlight, feel the refreshing spray, and breathe in the invigorating sea air.
Henrhyd Falls
Address: Dol Henrhyd, Coelbren, Neath SA10 9PH
Managed by the National Trust, Henrhyd Falls stands proudly as the tallest waterfall in South Wales, offering a mesmerising spectacle for hiking fans and nature enthusiasts. With a breathtaking drop of 27 metres into a wooded gorge, the waterfall is a testament to the natural beauty of the region.
Adventurous visitors can even explore behind the cascading water, though be careful of potentially slippery rocks. Keep a keen eye out for the presence of birds such as woodpeckers, tree creepers, warblers, and wrens, adding a delightful soundtrack to your hiking experience.
Rhaeadr Mawddach
Address: Dolgellau, Gwynedd LL40 1PE
Tucked away in the stunning Mawddach Valley, Rhaeadr Mawddach offers an awe-inspiring 40-metre drop that creates a mesmerising spectacle (especially after heavy rainfall). The path is well-maintained and will take you to various viewing platforms, giving you the best angles for photos or simply soaking up the beauty of the falls. If you’re staying at Hafan y Mor Holiday Park, you’re only a short drive away from this scenic spot.
Ffynone Waterfall
Address: Boncath SA37 0JE
Ffynone Waterfall is one of West Wales’s best-kept secrets. Nestled in Ffynone Woods, this picturesque location is notable for a series of cascades in a tranquil forest glade. The circular trail is short but scenic, and you’ll notice dappled sunlight breaking through the trees. It's an ideal spot for anybody looking for a peaceful day out in nature.
Ceunant Llennyrch Waterfall
Address: Maentwrog, Blaenau Ffestiniog LL41 4HN
Just under an hour’s drive from Porthmadog, Ceunant Llennyrch is a hidden natural waterfall that's neatly tucked away in ancient woodland managed by the Woodland Trust. This dramatic waterfall plunges into a deep ravine that's surrounded by mossy rocks and thriving flora. It's ideal for a quiet and atmospheric walk in one of Snowdonia's lesser-known corners, and the route offers a truly wild Welsh woodland experience as an added bonus!
Afon Cynfal Falls
Address: Ffestiniog, Gwynedd LL41 4PB
Located roughly half an hour from Porthmadog, this striking-looking waterfall is part of the Cynfal Gorge and offers rugged views with a strong sense of local folklore: legend links this area to the wizard Merlin.
The falls here tumble over dark rock formations in a secluded area with footpaths that are well-marked.

Let2offset - make no site fee payments until 2032
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 until 2032 when using Let2offset’ 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 until 2032 when using Let2offset” is applicable to new and existing customer purchases of new Victory Ashberry 3 Bed or equivalent 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. An example of how “Make no site fee payments until 2032 when using Let2offset” operates under Let2offset is the purchase of a Victory Ashberry 3 Bed holiday home at Seton Sands with a monthly site fee of £667.08 (includes purchasing discount of £17.08) and monthly letting income of £673.17. The monthly difference equates to £23.17, which will be credited to the owner's account. Both letting income and site fees are subject to yearly pricing reviews and inflation. The monthly site fee costs and letting income shown in the example are based on 2025 figures. Modelled assumptions on expected annual site fee and letting income charges over the 7-year lettable life of the Victory Ashberry 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 as of 2024. Images are shown for representational purposes.
