Ynyslas Sand Dunes

They border Cardigan Bay and the Dyfi Estuary between Ynyslas, Ceredigion and Aberdyfi, Gwynedd.

[1] Viviparous lizards, stoats, polecats, rabbits and voles can be found in the dunes.

[2] The sand lizard was introduced to Ynyslas NNR as part of a nationwide programme to boost population numbers, which started in 1995.

[3] There are waymarked boardwalk trails through the dunes where marsh and bee orchids flower during the early summer.

The visitor centre (open Easter to September) contains further information about the plants and wildlife of the area.
