Eight of Wrexham’s most loved and distinctive attractions have come together in a new joint venture designed to showcase the very best the county borough has to offer.

The collaboration brings together a diverse mix of heritage, culture, science and natural attractions to create an easy-to-follow, family-friendly visitor trail that encourages both residents and tourists to explore, connect and discover Wrexham in a new way.

The trail highlights eight must-see locations across the area, guiding visitors through a journey that spans 314 million years of history, from ancient, fossilised forests industrial heritage to modern culture, creativity, innovation, science and the future we are building today.

Participating attractions include:

Also included is Wrexham’s multi-award winning markets, arts and community hub, and home of Wrexham Visitor Information Centre, Tŷ Pawb.

Visitors are encouraged to follow the illustrated trail, explore each site and engage with interactive experiences along the way, collecting stickers at each stop to enhance the journey .

 

This trail is about more than just visiting places — it’s about telling the story of Wrexham. By working together, we’re creating a stronger, more visible offer that invites people to experience the richness, heritage and creativity of our area."

They continued to say, “This joint initiative is a strong example of cross-site collaboration, with organisations working together to strengthen Wrexham’s visitor offer and create a more connected tourism experience.”
