Terrain Isle of Anglesey Coastal Path falls within a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) which covers 95% of the coast. It passes through landscape that includes a mixture of farmland, coastal heath, dunes, salt-marsh, foreshore, cliffs and a few small pockets of woodland. Compared to the Jurassic Coast and the Atlantic Coast challenges the Anglesey Coast presents a slightly kinder challenge as its a bit flatter but still a tough challenge under foot.
