WALKS

In Autumn, the museum will be organising a programme of guided heritage walks around Penmaenmawr.

The walks are free to join and family-friendly, but donations to help with our insurance costs are always welcome.

The programme of walks will be published as and when they are safe to go ahead – please keep checking the website for information.
