Conwy’s three Slow Ways are 75% checked
Help connect Conwy
Many Slow Ways have several route options. Some will be better than others, or good for different reasons.
Our goal is for each Slow Way to have at least one route that is verified and surveyed. To be verified – and get its snail badge – a route needs at least three positive reviews.
Give a hike and help get a for every one of Conwy’s Slow Ways.

Start/ finish next to Conwy Train Station and the finish/ start is very close to Penmaenmawr Train Station. Outside of both towns, where it was quiet road walking, the route climbs to 3/4 way up Conwy Mountain by a stony track....

I wasn't too keen with the route offered along Treforris Road and Conwy Old Road as a way of getting from Dwygyfylchi to Penmaenmawr, although it's fair to say that Treforris Road is a quiet one-way road and Conwy Old Road isn't too busy. There are regular daily trains and buses linking Conwy and Penmaenmawr....

From Llandudno Junction, we follow streets under the A55 access road, then climb up steps onto Conwy Road to cross the railway....

I am not sure that the route selection is optimal - between Penmaenmawr and Dwygyfychi we gain quite a lot of height only to lose it all, and the choice of paths over the hill should stick to one of the two main paths rather than switching from one to the other on a little used and uncomfortably narrow path through the heather. From the meeting point in Penmaenmawr, we go down Ffordd Bangor then go straight on across the junction, bearing right up Old Conwy Road. Eventually the road turns sharply right and our path takes the track straight on, soon becoming a narrow and rough path that climbs steeply up through the heather to a T junction accessed via steps....

Lovely walk down through historic Conwy and across the bridge to Junction. - Route is accurate, if you need to use a slope down off the bridge instead of the stairs past Lidl you will just need to walk a little further along the bridge as currently the map looks like it directs you down the stairs but slope will bring you back on yourself/ the route....

Walked from Llandudno Junction to Conwy, both locations have good transport links (however rail services at Conwy can be a bit sparse, so make sure to check the timetable.) It is well-paved throughout with good facilities at either end. There is a flight of steps around SH 7905 7788 which can be avoided by travelling from Llandudno Junction Station to Conwy Road via the main roundabout. Taking this small diversion would make the route suitable for most wheelchair users and is ideal for cycles, subject to occasional dismounting....

Short and easy route from Llandudno Junction station to the middle of Conwy. Nice views along the estuary, and around town past the castle and other historic buildings. Accessible all along the way....
