A section of the Wales Coastal Path in Gwynedd damaged by a sinkhole in January has reopened following repairs.

A section of the Wales Coastal Path in the Tregraig area near Llangwnadl in Gwynedd has reopened after being damaged by a large sinkhole. The path closed without notice in January after torrential rain caused the sinkhole to open and collapse a wooden walkway.

Cyngor Gwynedd confirmed the reopening following repairs to the damaged section. Rhys Roberts, Wales Coastal Path Officer, said: 'We would like to thank the landowner for their full cooperation with this work, which has enabled this popular route to once again be available for public use.'

Roberts noted that the wet winter weather caused damage to several sections of the Wales Coastal Path across Gwynedd. Most have now reopened, and the council is confident that the remainder will reopen over the coming months.
