Barmouth Bridge

Barmouth Bridge, 150 years old in 2017. Currently free for pedestrians and cyclists to cross between Barmouth and Fairbourne. Once on the Fairbourne side, there is a path into Fairbourne itself, or you can travel up the famous Mawddach Trail along the disused railway line towards Dolgellau via the George the III pub.

Barmouth Beach

For that vintage seaside atmosphere of candy floss and donkey rides, set up your deckchair in the section closest to the town. The Blue Flag beach is never overcrowded and also has trampolines, bouncy castle and pirate ship during the Summer. If you want a quieter space for your picnic and to be closer to the sea, then venture further along the one-mile long promenade perhaps using the land train which runs the length of the promenade.

Lovely Beach you can walk for miles when the tide is right We experience a bad windy and rainy storm so only had one day in the beach which we all enjoyed very much Our Dog Alfie was happy he was welcome on the beach

Barmouth Harbour

Barmouth developed as one of the major ship building centres in Wales during the 18th & 19th centuries. The harbour still has a small fishing industry but is mainly used by pleasure craft. The estuary is home to Merioneth Yacht Club. Lining the edge of the harbour are cafes, ice-cream parlours and a pub with pleasant gardens to sit out in and watch the world go by.

I love it here in the harbour. It can be bustling or of a late evening really quiet. Either has it’s own beauty. There’s some great places to eat and drink around the harbour and lots to chose from to fit every taste and budget. The views are stunning here of the bridge, estuary and mountains! You can catch a small ferry to take you across the estuary where you can go for a walk or catch the Fairbourne miniature railway. We love spending time here when we visit.

Old Barmouth

Climbing haphazardly up the steep slopes at the back of the High Street, the paths and alleys of old Barmouth reveal many quaint and delightful corners. Houses seem to be built almost on top of one another in this fascinating jumble of steps and terraces.

Reviewed By robertwarksr - Warwickshire, United Kingdom

Fantastic Place to be to have a steeply energetic walk through the old Barmouth town. Wonderful scenery from the hieghts looking down and across the lower ground town of Barmouth. Plenty to see and read as you walk along your way. Its so quiet as you stroll up and along the narrow footways..

Ty Crwn (Round House)

Reviewed By alisonc905 - Leicester, United Kingdom

An unusual and interesting little place with plenty of information on it to read. Great bit of local history. They used to lock criminals and drunks up in here!! Won't take long but worth a look.

Panorama Walk

Reviewed By Me_n_my_rucksack - Yorkshire, United Kingdom

On a gorgeous day this is a gorgeous walk.... I think you need to do a bit of research prior - download the routes to your phone or similar as if you are not fully aware of where you expect to go you may not pick up on some of the intersections which could be a little better marked. That said this is an excellent walk - not too remote or dangerous to take the whole family out on it, not too easy and dull to not bother about. When you get to the panoramic point the views are awesome.....

St. John's Church

Overlooking Barmouth from the hill above the town is the Cathedral-like St John's Church. Open daily for visitors and worshippers its majestic and awe-inspiring interior is truly worth the walk. Come and see its amazing C E Kemp stained glass windows, marble Font and an amazing array of carved angels and the Reredos screen.

Reviewed By Bethancc - Wirral, United Kingdom
