Newborough Warren, Protected nature reserve in Rhosyr, Wales
Newborough Warren encompasses 2,269 hectares of coastal landscape with sand dunes, conifer plantations, freshwater lakes, and salt marshes along the Anglesey coast.
The site underwent major changes in 1947 when authorities initiated an extensive afforestation program using Corsican and Scots pine to prevent erosion of the dunes.
The reserve connects to the medieval court of Llys Rhosyr, which served as an administrative center for the Princes of Gwynedd during the 13th century.
Visitors can explore multiple hiking paths including the 7.4-kilometer Tŵr Mawr Lighthouse trail and the 13.5-kilometer Llanddwyn Island forest loop.
The area maintains a population of wild ponies that naturally manage vegetation while red squirrels inhabit the forest sections of the reserve.
