Llangollen

Llangollen is a town in North Wales situated in the Dee valley, known for its number of attractions. Why not give the town a visit.

Dinas Bran

Dinas Bran meaning crow castle is the name given to the hillock that over looks the town of Llangollen. The old castle ruins sit on top and can clearly be seen on the approach to the town. The hillock was clearly chosen for its steep sides and view of the valley below

Llangollen Canal

The waterway begins at Horseshoe falls a mile or so out of town and passes through the town below Dinas Bran. A boat trip along the World Heritage waterway to cross Pontcysyllte Aqueduct, the highest aqueduct in Britain is not for the faint hearted. Alternatively you can take a horse drawn boat trip for a more leisurely trip on the canal.

Llangollen Railway

The restored section of railway between Llangollen and Corwen is a key attraction in the town. Old steam engines along with a selection of older diesel engines run along the line. Throughout the year they have special event including, 'A Day Out With Thomas,' where Thomas the Tank Engine visits and is a favourite with young children.

The International Musical Eisteddfod

Once a year in July the town hosts an international music event. It starts with a parade through the town filling the air with musical sounds from around the globe. Many well known artists have performed at the event held in the towns pavilion.
