Follow the Wales Coast Path around the beautiful Llyn Peninsula, from Bangor to Porthmadog.
From £945 per person
The full Llyn Coast Path walking holiday journeys 111 miles around the spectacular Llyn Peninsula from Bangor to Porthmadog. The trail follows in the footsteps of ancient pilgrims on the trek out to Bardsey Island as it skirts around the shoreline of the peninsula on winding trails through wild and remote scenery.
This quiet corner of Wales features ancient woodlands, rugged clifftops and sandy beaches, as well as several intriguing historic sites and plenty of wonderful towns and villages, all surrounded by fantastic views, making this section of the Wales Coast Path a truly memorable walking adventure.
Visiting proud Caernarfon Castle and its more battle-worn counterpart, Criccieth Castle.
Walking into the lime-washed fishing village of Aberdaron, where pilgrims once rested before crossing the treacherous waters of the Bardse Sound to the Isle of 20,000 Saints.
Seeking out St Mary’s Well, which is covered twice daily by the sea but emerges, brimming with crystal clear water, from the ebbing tide.

This itinerary lists our preferred overnight stops for this tour. Sometimes there may be a shortage of available accommodation in a preferred location, in which case we will transfer you from the trail to your accommodation and back again at no extra charge. Overnight stops marked with a (T) will always require transfers as standard.
Overnight stops marked with an (L) have very limited accommodation, and therefore more often than not will also require a transfer, particularly on bank holidays and weekends. We will use non-transfer accommodation wherever possible.

We do not expect you to have to travel more than a mile from the trail to your accommodation; should your accommodation be further than this, transfers will be provided as standard.
Below are the additional costs that may apply depending on your requirements. Dog-friendly tours are subject to a Daily Dog Charge, which will be listed below if applicable. Our standard prices per person are based upon two people sharing a room; if you are on your own, or are part of a group but require a room of your own, then the Solo Traveller or Single Supplements apply respectively:

“This was a fantastic walk across stunning scenery of long, deserted beaches, interesting little coves, major castles and historic towns. I loved it! Really enjoyed exploring an area I hadn't been to before. Everything worked perfectly and the weather held out as well! It was a great holiday in a fantastic part of the world which is well worth exploring and has not yet become as busy as many other coastal areas such as the SWCP. Booked quite a few so far so will probably book another one... or two maybe next year.”Mr Madge, UK
“Amazing landscapes, perfect weather, well organised support by Contours.”Mrs Tillotson, UK
“Fantastic scenery and challenging walking.”Mr Farr, UK
“A superb peninsular walk with a wide variety of stunning scenery, in a quiet area that still feels a bit off the beaten track. Reminded me a lot of Cornwall, but not nearly as "touristy". The route has a lovely mix of cliffs, beaches, hills and marshland. All the accommodation was excellent (as it usually is!). Lots of wildlife, including quite a few seals in the sheltered bays.”Mr Julyan, UK
“Fabulous trip with excellent scenery, well waymarked.”Mr Anderson, UK
