Stunning nature reserve with fine coastal views and mountain scenery, and the location of the beautiful Aber Falls waterfall. One of the best circular walks I've done. A good path leads to the waterfall, passing through lush, almost tropical feeling woodland. A little way along the trail there's a small visitor hut, with information about the area's geography and history, and a model of the landscape.

There is plenty to see along the way...The river, plenty of trees and plants, some horses, and a weather station (if that's your thing). And a bonus...very patchy mobile signal so...
