National Parks
The wonderfully varied landscapes of Wales' three national parks offer spectacular hikes,
from coastal cliffs to jagged peaks.
Snowdonia

)
Designated in 1951, this North Wales stalwart is also home to the highest mountain
in England and Wales and is great for off-season walking.
Pembrokeshire Coast
(

) Coastal walking plus boat trips to a scattering of nearby islands
lends an ozone-blown frisson to a walk. Designated in 1952.
Brecon Beacons
(

)
A rural haven for flora and fauna amid the rugged landscape of the history-
carved mountains. Designated in 1957.
