The first stop is Panorama Walk which is around 25 minutes from Wrexham.  The road passes along the hillside above Llangollen and provides stunning views over the valley, even without leaving your car.

A large layby at the top provides a great spot for photography down into the valley.

Swallow Falls

Rhaeadr Ewynnol Swallow Falls Waterfall can be found along the A5 around 5 minutes from Betws-y-Coed. Believe it or not, the photo below was taken at f/22, ISO100 with a 0.4s shutter speed, with my camera resting on the railing (No tripod!).
