DAY 4:  Conwy to Llanfairfechan  8 miles (13 km) Easy walking
The Wales Coast Path closely follows the coastline to Morfa Conwy and onwards towards Penmaenmawr, an important quarrying town in its heyday, though this industry is no longer a major employer. The town grew as a popular seaside resort  for the wealthy  in the second half of the 19th century, partly due to the fact Prime Minister William Gladstone holidayed here 11 times.
(The Wales Coast Path gives you the option at Penmaenmawr to take the Mountain Route which takes you inland via the mystical Druid Stone Circle before descending to the vintage seaside resort of Llanfairfechan with views over the Lavan Sands).
DAY 5:  Llanfairfechan to Menai Bridge 13 miles (21 km) Easy walking
The Lavan Sands is your first port of call today with its diverse and abundant bird life. The site is of importance for wintering water birds, especially Oystercatchers. Pass (and visit) Penrhyn Castle, a National Trust property. Penrhyn Castle is a 19th-century fantasy castle with interesting contents and grounds and exhibits notable paintings by artist such as Rembrandt, Canaletto and Richard Wilson. The trail continues to Bangor pier, along the banks of the Menai Straits ending at the famous Menai Suspension Bridge built by Thomas Telford in 1826. Cross over the bridge onto the Isle of Anglesey.
