Why the Great Orme is a Great Place to Visit

Wales is a country that has so much abundant natural beauty, and if you are looking for somewhere to enjoy the great outdoors and beautiful natural landscapes, Wales is the place to go this summer. One of the places that you should definitely explore if you enjoy the natural Welsh landscapes, is the Great Orme.

At over 200 metres above sea level, the limestone headland stands proudly above the coastline of the popular holiday town of Llandudno, and you can also see over to the Irish sea and towards the mountains of Snowdonia – if you want breathtaking views this is definitely the place to come to.

If it is your first time there, it is a good idea to go to the Great Orme visitor centre where you will be able to find out more about the area and its history, as well as walking trails that you might enjoy.

As well as beautiful views and lots of walking, you can also see the history of the area, with the signs of mining activity that go back thousands of years. These mines are actually among the oldest known mines in the world.

It is also a great place for families, whether you want to make the most of the wind and fly a kite, or simply enjoy a picnic surrounded by the natural beauty of the area. The nearby town of Llandudno provides a great place for you to stay, with many accommodation options on offer like this luxury hotel Llandudno as well as family friendly holiday parks.
