Glyndŵr National Park
GB
National Park·Scenic, Vast, Untamed
Glyndŵr National Park is a major conservation initiative in north-east Wales, currently envisioned to encompass and expand upon the existing Clwydian Range and Dee Valley Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Named in honor of Owain Glyndŵr, the last native Prince of Wales, the proposed park covers a vast area of approximately 927 square kilometers. Its varied topography includes the coastal dunes of Gronant and Talacre, the rugged Berwyn range, and the expansive Dyfnant Forest. Supported by organizations like the National Trust and RSPB Cymru, the park is intended to act as a vital hub for regional biodiversity and a premier destination for outdoor enthusiasts. As the project progresses through public and local council discussions, it remains a landmark effort to preserve the natural heritage of the Welsh landscape.
