Walks in Flintshire
Flintshire sits in the northeast corner of Wales, bordered by the Dee Estuary and Cheshire to the east. The Wales Coast Path follows the county’s shoreline past Connah’s Quay, Bagillt and Holywell, while inland the Clwydian Range Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty rises toward Moel Famau, with Loggerheads Country Park a popular starting point for walks into the hills. Offa’s Dyke Path’s northern terminus lies just across the county boundary at Prestatyn, making Flintshire a natural stepping-off point for both trails.
