The Llangollen Bridge is a grade 1 listed structure in the centre of the town. It crosses the River Dee. There has been a bridge here since 1284 but the current bridge dates back to the 12th or 13th century. It's doubled in width since it was first built.

Mountain biking

Llangollen is a beautiful town on the River Dee, and the perfect place for an overnight stop on a bikepacking tour. There are a number of cafes and restaurants in the town, with the pick of the bunch along the riverside. The youth hostel is inexpensive and spacious, and the owners are really helpful and friendly - there's plenty of secure bike parking space too. Further information: llangollenhostel.co.uk
