Clwydian Hills Guide

The Clwydian Hills stretch for about 20 miles, rising between the Vale of Clwyd to the west and the Dee Estuary to the east. This line of undulating hills have steep slopes to their west providing excellent views as far as Snowdonia. In contrast to the moorland character of the summits the surrounding valleys are lush and green.
