The Lonely Planet Guide says Wales is "a place that becomes obsessive, bekconing back its visitors year after year".  Then there's the Rough Guide, that calls us "the most beguiling part of the British Isles". 

Many people come here for our striking landscape and scenery. Wales has three National Parks (including Pembrokeshire Coast National Park - the only coastal National Park in the UK), five Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty, and only 2.9 million people! Unlike national parks in some other countries, our National Parks aren’t wildernesses, but living communities with beautiful countryside containing pretty villages and market towns.

Our landscape offers opportunities for all kinds of activities - walking, cycling, climbing, golf, water sports and paragliding to name but a few. If you fancy climbing a mountain, we’ve got plenty to choose from! Bring your bike and you could try mountain biking on some of the best runs in Europe. But if you're not feeling quite so energetic, our highest mountain, Snowdon, has a train that takes you all the way up to the summit! Maybe you’re after something a bit less steep? How about heading for the beach? We’ve got award-winning beaches right around our 1,200km (750 mile)-long coastline. But if you don’t fancy rock climbing or rock pooling, why not spend time in our bustling city centres, tiny craft shops, designer outlets and galleries.
