Forest to sea: Newborough and Llanddwyn
Pine forest trails, a huge beach and an island at the end of it. Bring the dog.

The plan
Start: Llyn Parc Mawr
Begin at the forest lake on the edge of Newborough village, where red squirrels are often seen. Walk quietly and go early.
Walk: Newborough Forest and Llanddwyn
Head through the pines to the beach and out to Ynys Llanddwyn. The Saint, Sand and Sea Trail from the Beach car park is 7 km. Check tide times, as the island can be cut off at high tide. From 1 May to 30 September dogs aren’t allowed on the beach by the car park, and on the island they must be on a short lead from April to September.
After: Y Marram
Food from Thursday to Sunday at the relaunched Marram Grass, five minutes back towards the village.
Winter or wet-day swaps
If the weather turns, Tacla Taid transport museum is a short drive away (daily 10am–4pm).
