Wildflower walk at Marl Hall Woods – Sat 6 July
Join us for a guided walk around Marl Hall Woods with a session identifying and recording rare grassland species.
Take in the rich flora and varied habitats of Marl Hall Woods this summer on a guided walk.
Marl Hall Woods near Llandudno boasts both ancient semi-natural woodland and limestone grassland, with stunning displays of rare wildflowers in summer. Its high vantage point also provides great views across the Conwy Valley.
Ever seen a wildflower and not known the species? Join our guided walk leaders to explore this site and spend some time learning how to identify and record the wildflowers found in the grassland – a transferable skill you can practice again elsewhere!
This is a free event, but booking via Eventbrite is essential.
Please come equipped with suitable footwear and clothing for the prevailing conditions on the day.
If you have any flower identification books or a hand lens please bring these with you, clearly labelled with your name.
There are no toilets on site. The nearest toilets can be found at the Tourist Information Centre in Conwy.
Under 18s must be accompanied by a parent or guardian.
