5 Welsh Pub Walks To Complete This Autumn

Outdoor experts at Millets have revealed their top family-friendly walks in Wales, perfect for the Autumn months.

Looking at walks that are accessible, family-friendly and have a pub on the route, Millets ranked the top family-friendly walks by their ratings and the number of reviews.

Wales’ top 5 family-friendly walks

In first place is the Llangollen Circular, a 14.5km circular walk near Wrexham. The trail offers scenic paths, good views, and historic sites, taking walkers from Trevor to Llangollen via Trevor Hallwood and Castell Dinas Bran. Reviews celebrate views of castles and Welsh wildlife. You can also stop at pubs such as The Corn Mill, Sun Trevor and the Bull Inn for refreshments on this walk.

Llangennith to Rhosili Circular comes in second place. The 6.8km circular trail near Swansea takes an average of 1 hour 54 minutes to complete and is a popular trail for birding, camping, and fishing. Walkers can see beaches, and Welsh wildlife, arriving in Rhosilli village halfway through the walk as a great opportunity for a drink with beautiful views.

The Belgian Promenade in Angelsey has been named the third-best family-friendly walk in Wales. The 3.7km out-and-back trail is considered an easy route and takes walkers to Church Island, passing the Bridge Inn and the Anglesey Arms, which offers beautiful views of the island.

Natalie Byrne, author and outdoor enthusiast at Millets comments:

“A walk is the perfect excuse to get all the family together and moving! To allow the whole family to get involved, it is a great idea to choose a route that is accessible to both wheelchairs and prams. It is also recommended that you check the difficulty of your walking route as well as the estimated time that it will take for the whole family to walk it. Of course, if you have any younger children or any slower walkers, allow for extra time to stop on your walk.”

“Packing the correct equipment can make all the difference between a good walk and a difficult walk. I recommend a sturdy pair of walking boots that will support your ankles and be comfortable on longer walks. It is also a good idea to pack some lightweight waterproof clothing for the family. It may be coming up to summer, but British weather cannot be trusted, and no one wants to sit in the pub post-walk in wet clothes!”
