フリントシャーの天然記念物・トップ7

This beautiful place is perfect for an afternoon out.(mind the sun though) Views of Welsh farmland are all around including some enchanting woodlands! My dog loves it up here, not many people so nice and calm.

Not all trails in this area permit mountain bikes. Check it first. The rangers over there are zealots.

Here in Holywell, one discovers the origins of a saint who is popular not only in Wales: Saint Winifred (actually "Gwenfrewi," other name variations include Winefrieda, Wenefrida, Winfrida, Wenefreda, Guenfrida, Guenvreda, Guenwera). Her name translates as "the friend of peace" or "the white friend of peace." The search for her life and death (as a martyr) takes us back in time to the first half of the seventh century. Saint Winifred's feast day in the calendar of saints is November 3rd. The pilgrimage tradition to Holywell is considered the oldest in Great Britain, but her remains are no longer here; they were transferred to Shrewsbury in the 12th century.

Like all hills the weather can turn in an instant take sturdy foot wear and a waterproof jacket :)

The large trees, mainly horse chestnuts are really impressive and low to the ground along this stretch, you can stand inside the tree. It's a really amazing sight/feeling and one that the photos don't really do justice to.

A really interesting monument and not at all how you think it will be when you see it from a distance

Talacre beach is a large expanse of sand on the northernmost point of Wales where the Dee Estuary meets the Irish sea. Backed by sand dunes and with a scenic old lighthouse (reputed to be haunted!) it makes a great beach destination. The dunes and beach areas were used for Spitfire training and the remains of pill boxes and rows of larch posts, originally put in to deter enemy invasion, can still be seen. As a result of the target practice and occasional dogfight overhead, the beaches were littered with spent ammunition.

A great walk if you like the less populated walks
