Great Orme and Llangynog

Weatherman Walking Series 7
Episode 3 of 3

Derek Brockway explores the rugged beauty of the Great Orme headland before taking a walk from Llangynog to the Pistyll Rhaeadr waterfall.

Derek Brockway heads to Llandudno but he's not there to hit the beach, he's off to explore the rugged beauty of Great Orme, a giant headland overlooking the Irish Sea. Along the way he visits St Tudno's church and copper mines that date back four thousand years. His next walk takes him to the remote Berwyn mountains, where he walks from Llangynog to the spectacular Pistyll Rhaeadr waterfall, one of the seven wonders of Wales.
