Walking
The area is a walker’s paradise. The 84 mile Llŷn Coastal path is just a few minutes’ walk away from the campsite. To the north, it heads as far as Caernavon, and on the southern stretch of the peninsula the path heads to Porthmadog. A beautiful walk is to follow the path from the campsite around the headland – the views are stunning. A longer walk can take you Mynedd Mawr, with views over Bardsey Island (Ynys Enlli). Away from the coastal path, the countryside is criss-crossed with public footpaths. If you want mountains and stunning views, then a walk straight from the camp site will take you to the top of Anelog, or a short drive will take you to the base of Garn Fadryn. At the top you can even see the Irish Ferry on a clear day!

Beaches

The beaches of the Llŷn Peninsula are beautiful. Unspoilt, uncrowded, full of wildlife, the beaches are a perfect way to relax and unwind. Tir Glyn is at the tip of the Peninsula, so you are spoilt for choice with beaches to the north and the south.
