Welcome Rangers

The Clwydian Range and Dee Valley Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) once again experienced a busy summer holiday period with thousands of visitors wanting to experience this special part of Wales with all the wonderful things it has to offer.

With the easing of Covid restrictions and ever present threat of the virus for both residents and visitors alike the AONB team were pleased to received additional support from Welsh Government for extra countryside rangers who were deployed at beauty spots, including Loggerheads and Moel Famau country parks and Horseshoe Falls, to provide information, support for visitors and help deal with any issues on the ground.

This additional support has also assisted the AONB Team with their annual summer countryside code campaigns with particular emphasis given to:

• Responsible dog owners to keep their dogs on leads especially around livestock
• Plan ahead and have a plan B if things look busy
• Park responsible and in designated areas
• Bring picnics or shop locally rather than using disposable barbeques.
