Seasonal Wildlife Wonders: Walking the Wales Coast Path in North Wales
Explore North Wales’ coastal wildlife all year...
Introducing our new social media ambassadors!
Our favourite influencers and content creators for walking inspiration
Meet our Ambassadors!
When it comes to planning a coastal or countryside adventure, these days many of us turn to our favourite influencers and content creators for inspiration.
Scrolling their technicolour Instagram pages, blog posts and TikToks is like a treasure trove of outdoor creativity that has their followers yearning to strap on their walking boots and head off for a hike to see these spectacular locations for themselves.
With this in mind, this autumn we have appointed the first in a new series of Wales Coast Path and National Trails social media ambassadors, who we will be collaborating with on an ongoing basis to share some of the most beautiful locations from right across Wales. And as time goes by we’ll be adding more social media Ambassadors to our line up, so this is only the beginning…
Expect to see lots of joint Instagram posts across our channels, as well as some forthcoming exclusive blog posts outlining some of our Ambassadors’ favourite walking routes, iconic photo moments and insider intel.
