Local tip
Go on a clear evening for sunset across the island.

Mynydd Bodafon is a little hill of heather and rock inland from Moelfre and Brynrefail. A short circular path climbs to the trig point at 178m, the highest spot on Anglesey proper, with views across the whole island and over to the mountains. There’s a small lake and the remains of an Iron Age settlement on the slopes.

Good to know

About 1km round trip, free. Small parking area near the lake on the south-west side.
