Family adventures in North Wales and Cheshire
Tips for hiking with babies and toddlers

01/03/2026

The Reservoir Trail at Llandegla is a great family friendly walk in North Wales 🙌

Just over 4km, mostly flat, and an easy loop - making it ideal for toddlers.

And yes … a café at the end. Always helps (especially when Lily ate all her snacks in the first 10 minutes …)

📍The Reservoir Trail, Llandegla Forest
👣 ~4km loop
🧒 Toddler-friendly
☕ Café on site
🚗 £7 parking

Save this for a simple weekend plan.

Hiking with a toddler looks very different to hiking pre-kids - but it’s just as special (even more so! 🫶)

Lily is 3 now, and these little tips have made such a difference to our family walks. Slow, messy, snack-filled adventures… and honestly, I wouldn’t change them.

Full toddler hiking tips are over on the blog (comment ‘toddler’ and i’ll send you a DM with the link!) 💛

Save this for your next family walk!

2026 so far… a series of solo adventures with little L.

This season of My Mountains & Me is definitely a little slower, and I’m embracing every second 🫶

A spellbinding new adventure is now open at Delamere Forest - Forestry England! ✨

Get the children outdoors and follow the Room on the Broom Trail, bringing Julia Donaldson’s much-loved story to life in the heart of the forest. Help the Witch and her friends find lost treasures, collect magical ingredients and enjoy hands-on activities along the way.

Perfect for young explorers, with optional trail packs available to add a little extra woodland magic.

🌿 New on the blog! 🌿

If you’re looking for an easy, family-friendly day out in North Wales, we love Alyn Waters Country Park in Wrexham. It’s perfect for little adventurers - think gentle woodland walks, riverside paddling spots, a brilliant playground, and a lovely café to warm up afterwards.

I’ve put together a full guide to the best walks, facilities, kid-friendly highlights, and everything you need to plan a visit.

If you’ve not been yet, it’s such a lovely spot for a relaxed weekend adventure!

Swipe to get to know me a little better 💚

From mountains to motherhood, life has changed a lot… but the outdoors is still my therapy and my favourite place to reset.
