The Dee Valley Picturesque Bus has started its third season providing access to some of the key destinations in this beautiful and
historic landscape.
It runs a circular route running every Saturday until November 4
2023, linking Llangollen and the surrounding villages to popular local
attractions including Pontcysyllte Aqueduct, Wenffrwd Nature Reserve, Horseshoe
Falls, Valle Crucis Abbey, Plas Newydd Historic House and the Horseshoe Pass.
The service will enable visitors and residents to visit and explore
these locations without the need of having to constantly find car parking
spaces at the sites.
It also makes it easier for those without their own vehicle to access
these places, all helping to reduce congestion at some of the busiest sites in
the Dee Valley.
The bus offers a hop on/hop off facility with a 1Bws ticket price
allowing unlimited travel on the service through the day, making it ideal for
getting off to visit a site and then back on the bus later.
Stops include Llangollen Pavilion where there is ample parking to leave
vehicles for the day to enjou the bus transport provided.
The service also provides free travel for Welsh Bus Pass Holders through
Transport for Wales.
Cllr Win-Mullen James, Lead Member for Local Development and Planning,
said: “The Dee Valley Picturesque Bus offers the perfect chance to explore the
Dee Valley in comfort without the stress of having to plan to park at these
fantastic locations around Llangollen.
The Dee Valley Picturesque Bus Service 199 will operate Saturdays only
from Saturday April 1st – Saturday November 4th 2023.
The bus is part funded by the National Lottery Heritage Fund and is part
of the Our Picturesque Landscape Project.
