Wales 360 Bala Caernarfon Holyhead Llandudno

About trip

Often known as the Snowdonia 360, the Wales 360 is the Welsh equivalent of the Scottish NC500. Primarily in the Snowdonia National Park this route contains fabulous mountain passes, spectacular coastline panoramas and breathtakingly beautiful countryside to travel through. The 360 comes from the distance - 360 miles and although this can be achieved in one day, I suggest stopping for one night in Holyhead on Holy Island on the Isle of Anglesey. There is a good mixture of small rural roads and faster twisty roads and all are bitumen covered. There is a small toll charge for using Penmaenpool Bridge: for motorcycles it is .50p and for cars .80p. and a weight limit of 2.5 tonnes. Marine Drive on Great Orme is a toll road with a charge for a motorcycle of £2.50 and for a car it is £4.50 (2023). This is an exceptionally good route with something for everyone which is why I have awarded 5***** stars.
