Parks & Nature
Take a walk around the reserve, which is constructed of ancient peat bogs. There is fantastic birdwatching and the views are lovely. There is also the Ystwyth Trail which runs adjacent and tracks the former railway line, so lovely and flat for cycling.

Walking the Cardigan Bay Coastal Path is wonderful at any time of year. Discover secret coves and spectacular views. If you are lucky you might spot dolphins or porpoises frolicking in the ocean or seals on the quiet beaches.
