This
area of Wales has so may attractions for potential visitors;
from the beaches and the coastline for swimming and sun-bathing,
the hills and mountains for walking and climbing and numerous
specialist activities like mountain biking, horse riding,
white water rafting and even (dry slope) skiing.
Fishing
| One glance at the towering peaks and steep
valleys that are such dominant features Snowdonia National
Park is enough to convince most coarse anglers that North
Wales has little to offer them. |
Not so, however: tucked away in lowland pockets is some
of Wales's finest coarse fishing.
Fish for SALMON & SEATROUT on approx. 13
miles of the best waters in Wales, on rivers Mawddach and
Wnion at Dolgellau. Catch Brown & Rainbow Trout fishing
on Llyn Cynwch Lake near the well known Precipice Walk. |
 |
| Variety is the spice of life, and
if that's what you are looking for you will surely find
the North Wales coast very much to your taste. Hard fighting,
golden flanked Pollack and multi-coloured Wrasse can be
caught from virtually every rock mark, along with Dogfish,
Bream, Gurnards, Conger and many, many more.The beaches
and estuaries will produce Bass and various types of Flatfish. |
Golf
Just half-a-mile from the town centre lies
Dolgellau Golf Course.
With 9 holes and alternate tees set in beautiful parkland with panoramic views
this is a lovely course to play a round or two.
Also has a driving range and putting green. |
 |
Also worthy of a mention is Royal St David's
Golf Club at Harlech occupying the dune land between Harlech
Castle and the sea. |
| Apart from the quality of the holes and the
severity of the test, the views of the Snowdon Mountains,
the magnificent Castle and, at last, from the 16th tee, the
Lleyn Peninsular across Tremadog Bay, make Harlech one of
the finest situations of any course in Britain. |
