The Hiraethog area is not just about mountain biking! There is a whole host of local tourist attractions for all tastes. An area steeped in history, visits to places such as Ruthin Gaol or Dinas Bran Castle provide a fascinating insight into times gone by, whereas the historic market towns of Ruthin, Denbigh and home of the famous International Eisteddfod, Llangollen, add their own unique flavour to the area.

Rhuddlan Castle - just one of many!

Why not check out some of these whilst in the area...

Our Tourist Information Centres are open all year round and provide a full bed-booking service, in addition to specialist information and help.
