Aberystwyth Cliff Railway

Highlight • Viewpoint

The cliff railway is the much less tiring way to get up to the top of Constitution hill. Not sure on the prices but I wish id of gone up just for the experience.

View of Aberystwyth from Constitution Hill Funicular

Highlight • Viewpoint

The Cliff Parkway winds its way up Constitution Hill alongside the funicular railway which hauls its passengers up at the stately pace of 4mph. Can you beat it to the top and save yourself a fiver while you're at it?

Borth Beach

Lovely, big, beach with sand and pretty shells. The flood defences create a lagoon area with shallow, safe water for paddling and swimming.
