Bangor self guided walk
Bangor is a town rich in heritage. The first settlements date back to Neolithic times, but it was the founding of the monastery by St Comgall in AD558 and the establishment of a centre of learning that laid the towns foundations.
Since that time Bangor has been attacked by Vikings, settled by the Scottish Planters, developed as a seaside town and saw General Eisenhower visit troops taking part in D Day. Today Bangor is a thriving maritime town.
This walk will last approximately 1½ hours to complete (unless you follow the coastal path for a time or take a walk through one of the parks). The walk does involve several gradients, these are highlighted on the map on the back of the guide that can be downloaded below or picked up at Bangor Tourist Information Centre.
