This is a beautiful walk in an area that is overlooked because of the seaside attractions and associations of Colwyn Bay; most people who go there aren't looking for a walk and most walkers don't expect to find any walks there. In fact, this hinterland is criss-crossed with paths and can be quite steep. This particular walk is an easy climb from the start which is just above sea level and at its height there are superb views of The Great and Little Ormes, of Anglesey and Puffin Island, of the Carneddau and other Snowdonia peaks behind them. Contrary to expectation, it is well-signposted and has sound stiles.
