Ride the traditional tram (built in 1902) to the summit of the Great Orme, enjoy the visitor centre and visit Randolf Turpin's Bar in the Summit Complex.
The Great Orme Tramway is a cable-hauled 3 ft 6 in gauge tramway in Llandudno in north Wales. Open seasonally from late March to late October, it takes over 200,000 passengers each year from Llandudno Victoria Station to just below the summit of the Great Orme headland. From 1932 onwards it was known as the Great Orme Railway, reverting to its original name in 1977.

artificial ski slope and toboggan run
from the Happy Valley to the summit of the Great Orme.
the finest in Wales, second longest in Britain and one of a dwindling number of recreational piers in the country.
Bronze age mines on the upper slopes of the Great Orme. Tours start off with a brief talk on the mine and seeing tools found in excavations, before heading down into the mines! Great fun and well worth a visit, although the tours aren't very long. The mines are slippery, confined and claustrophobic.
Contemporary art and design
perhaps visiting Saint Tudno's church.
