About

Harlech and Llanbedr ward encompasses a stretch of the North Wales coastline, dominated by the expansive sands of Morfa Harlech and the Traeth Bach estuary. The landscape is defined by the imposing presence of Harlech Castle, a UNESCO World Heritage site built on a rocky outcrop with commanding views over Tremadog Bay. Inland, the ward includes the village of Llanbedr and the lower slopes of the Rhinogydd mountains, characterised by rugged terrain and scattered settlements.

The area's economy has long been connected to agriculture and tourism, with the historic castle being a major focal point. The flat, low-lying land between the coast and the mountains contains significant areas of pasture. A notable local feature is the steep, narrow-gauge railway that climbs from sea level at Harlech up to the village above, following a route engineered in the late 19th century. The ward's communities are closely linked to both the coastal environment and the upland interior.
