Carmel Head – 4.8.2023

It was a fine day when we left the campsite „Valley of the Rocks“ and drove off Holy Island.

We parked at Tyn Llan und first walked through an alleyway full of butterflies 🙂

Next we met a lot of pheasants …

… and a lot of cows.

Then we joined the coast path around Carmel Head. Wales has a coast path that runs all along its coast (870 miles!).

The beach Traeth Ynys y Fydlyn looks very interesting! We could see the islets Skerries with the lighthouse.

We then had to climb a steep slope.

Again, a lot of pheasants ran across the path.

We just love the combination of these colours 🙂

The rocks and stones also have different colours.

Quite a few of the rare chough (familiy of the crows) were showing off!

We even saw peregrines and other flying objects 🙂

Interesting cliffs and lovely flowers and the Skerries lighthouse.

These very tall towers are somehow important for navigation.

The cliffs weren’t quite as high on the other side of the head and it was obvious that the tide was out again.

We noticed a few animals in the sea and at the shore, and the rocks looked very interesting.

A couple of old gates – one at the end of our walk, and one to get into a churchyard.

The churchyard is in Llanbadrig where we stayed for the night.
