National Cycle Network Route Number Five
The Wales Coast Path and National Cycle Network mostly share the same route across Denbighshire and Conwy, linking the major north Wales resorts of Prestatyn, Rhyl, Sandy Cove, Colwyn Bay and Llandudno and the walled castle town of Conwy. However, please note that the WCP and NCN follow different routes in a few places and, where this occurs, cyclists should follow the NCN rather than WCP logos. This is a very popular route with extensive views out to sea, along the coast, and inland to the Clwydian Hills, the Vale of Clwyd and the northern slopes of Snowdonia National Park.
Distance:
- Prestatyn to Llandudno:16 miles / 26 km
- Llandudno to Llanfairfechan:12 miles / 19 km
Terrain: Tarmac and mostly flat, other than occasional short sharp inclines up which bikes can be pushed. Entirely traffic free other than very short sections on roads, where bikes can be pushed on adjacent pavements.
