A self-catering walking holiday in
Aberdaron

Glan Dwr Cottage in Aberdaron village (the cottage on the right in the
photograph) has 3 bedrooms, two of which have bunk beds and one of which
has a double bed and a sea view. The cottage is centrally heated and
also has a kitchen (containing a dishwasher, oven and hob, and a washing
machine), a bathroom (with shower over a bath), and a dining/sitting
room with a TV, DVD player and HiFi and sea view. The cottage is in a
superb location directly opposite the slipway to Aberdaron beach and
close to the Ship Hotel which serves excellent evening meals should you
not feel like cooking. Glan Dwr also has its own large private parking
area nearby.
Day 2 After breakfast we will meet you and ask you
to follow us in your own car to the end point of the day’s walk in Llithfaen. We will then take you on in our minibus to the start of the
walk at Clynnog Fawr. Clynnog was the traditional assembly point for
pilgrims making the journey to Bardsey Island, and contains a fine
church, chapel and holy well dedicated to St Beuno.
You can then set out
on the first section of the walk over the high moors at Bwlch Mawr,
which will lead you to the Rivals Inn at Llanaelhaearn for lunch and
then up an interesting ascent of the Yr Eifl range and the Iron Age fort
of Tre’r Ceiri and then down back to Llithfaen and your car. Distance 14
miles or less if you wish.
Day 3 Follow us in your car to Morfa Nefyn where you will park before we drive you back to Llithfaen
from where you will walk past the Nant Gwrtheyrn Heritage Centre, the
town of Nefyn and the famous pub on the beach at Porth Dinllaen
www.tycoch.co.uk where you can stop for a well deserved pint before
retrieving your car. Distance 11 miles.
Day 4 Drive to Porth
Colmon. We will take you on to Morfa Nefyn from where you will walk
along the coast back to your car. This section is noted for being a good
place to spot seals and dolphins. Distance 11 miles or less if you wish.
Day 5 Today we will drive you to Porth Oer from where you will
follow the coastal path all the way around the headland to Aberdaron
itself. This section provides spectacular views from the hills at the
tip of the peninsula, both south-west to Bardsey Island and north-east
along almost the entire length of the route. It’s a great opportunity to
see just how far you’ve come! 11 miles or less if you wish.
Day
6 Walk to Porth Meudwy, across the cliffs from Aberdaron, before taking
the Enlli ferry across to Bardsey Island, see www.bardsey.org. This is a
beautiful place, full of wildlife and steeped in history. Visitors have
three hours to explore before returning to the mainland. The cost of the
return trip is £25 per head payable to the Bardsey Island Trust, a
charity that works to preserve this unique location. You will return
circa 3:30pm.
Day 7 Return home, perhaps via the delights of
Snowdonia.
