Walks on the Island of Anglesey in North Wales.


Anglesey is ideally suited for walkers. There are few places on Anglesey where walking would be a great challenge. Anglesey is predominantly a flat island, with a few exceptions, e.g. Holyhead Mountain.

The picturesque beauty of our island leaves a lasting impression, and walking on Anglesey is one of the nicest activities I can imagine.

The lake at Cefni

Walking beside Llyn (Lake) Cefni - situated in the village of Bodffordd, just 1 mile from Llangefni. Do take a picnic, as there is enough distance to cover walking around the lake as to miss a meal - or two.

Another great walk is around the lake at Llyn Alaw. Pretty easy to find on any map of Anglesey.

Recent years has seen the developement of the Breakwater Quarry in Holyhead, and this will be of interest to walkers at all levels. Exquisite scenery abounds. Includes walks around the shores, and if you are feeling energetic, mountain walks. A man made lake is home to a good deal of wildlife.
