Things to do in Mid Wales in winter
Winter is a good time to see the landscapes without the crowds. You can still pack a lot into a short break — with options for dry days, wet days, and everything between.
Ideas for your visit:
-
Walking and cycling on lower-level routes, forests and riverside trails, plus bigger hill days when the weather’s right.
-
Waterfalls, reservoirs and viewpoints that look their best after winter rain.
-
Dark skies in some of the clearest night-sky areas in Wales — ideal for stargazing on crisp evenings.
-
Castles, museums and galleries for easy indoor exploring.
-
Wildlife spotting from red kites inland to winter seabirds along Cardigan Bay.
-
Food and local produce in cafés, pubs and restaurants across our towns and villages.
