Another chance to enjoy good company and stunning views of Aber Falls at Abergwyngregyn between Llandudno & Bangor. We start walking up the valley through the woods to the bottom of Rhaeadr Fawr, bigger and most impressive of the two waterfalls, then cut across to see Rhaeadr Fach, the slightly smaller falls. We then follow the North Wales path which rises gently high above the valley and then turns to overlook the coast with wonderful views to Puffin Island and Anglesey. We then return to the start point.

Head out on this 6.8-km circular trail near Abergwyngregyn, Conwy. Generally considered a moderately challenging route, it takes an average of 2 h 14 min to complete. This is a very popular area for birding, hiking, and mountain biking, so you'll likely encounter other people while exploring. The best times to visit this trail are January through September. Dogs are welcome and may be off-lead in some areas.

This is a beautiful circular walk to Rhaeadr Fawr (Aber Falls). Starting at the lower Aber Falls car park, you walk through a small section of wood along the Afon Rhaeadr Fawr before crossing the stream and continuing on the main path through the valley. The path to the falls is a well-maintained gravel path, with a steady incline. Just before arriving at the falls, you'll pass the remnants of an Iron Age settlement, the Aber Valley Hut Circle, which was built around a Bronze Age standing stone.

The Aber Falls are a spectacular sight, especially after heavy rainfall. If you're feeling up to it, you could take a dip into the plunge pool. Keep in mind, however, that the water is likely to be extremely cold and the rocks slippery, so take extra care.

Once you've gazed your fill of the cascading water, cross the bridge over the Afon Rhaeadr Fawr and continue at a slight incline across the moorland, heading along the side of Ffridd Ddu towards Abergwyngregyn. The descent to the village is a little steep in places, and once back down in the valley, there is a section of road to take you back to the car park. This trail can be done in either direction, with some preferring to take the anti-clockwise route, getting the steep section out of the way and enjoying the long descent to the waterfalls and through the valley.

If arriving by car, parking at Aber Falls car park is limited, so make sure to arrive early. There are two car parks, both of which require a small fee, so make sure to bring change. Alternatively, there is more parking available in Abergwyngregyn. There are also bus services to the village from Bangor or Conwy.
