Abergele Town Council

About

Abergele is an old Roman town situated on the north coast of Wales between the resorts of Colwyn Bay and Rhyl in the county borough of Conwy. The town itself lies on the A55 and is surrounded by woodland covered hillsides. Aber denotes the mouth of a river, and Gele, originally Gelau, meant in Old Welsh the blade of a sword or the tip of a spear. Gelau would be an admirable name for a narrow, clear swift stream. Please click on www.abergele-towncouncil.co.uk/downloads/abergele-walks.pdf for a copy of the Abergele Walks Leaflet. This is a joint project between Abergele Town Council and Conwy County Borough Council to produce a Walks leaflet for local people and tourists to be able to take advantage of the countryside. The leaflet displays five local walks, which vary in distance from 1.8 miles to 6 miles long, and all walks are of a moderate level. Some areas of natural beauty as well as historic buildings and areas of special scientific interest are identified on the leaflet. All walks commence at the Water Street Car Park. Leaflets are also available in many of the local shops, Libraries, cafes and public buildings.
