Details: Coed Trellyniau (SJ181 692) is an ancient bluebell wood with a long history. Coed Trellyniau is one of the last natural remnants of an ancient oak and ash woodland. Although many of the original trees were once felled and beech and pine planted in their place, the carpet of woodland flowers is much the same as centuries ago. The Wildlife Trust are selectively removing the beech trees to create glades for invertebrates and birds and to encourage natural regeneration of native trees and plants. Splendid drifts of bluebells are locally renowned and many more plants are evidence of the wood's antiquity.

Location: The reserve is six miles NW of Mold. From the Mold Denbigh Road (A541) turn North towards Rhes y Cae. These roads are all very narrow, but limited parking is available on the verge at SJ177693.
