Here we list places where photographers can
photograph Autumn Colours in Wales. This is the start of a list that we hope
will both grow over time and hopefully we will be able to add more columns or
information.
Because many of our woodlands are looked after
by large organisations, who like to update their websites alot, we have used the
website column in this case to determine which woodland is looked after by which
organisation. The three main organisations for Wales are the Woodlands Trust,
Natural Resources Wales and some are with the National Trust. If there is a link
in this column, that goes to a website specifically for that woodland, so you
can go direct. Otherwise visit the website link, provided below, of the
organisation and then in their search put the name of the place you are
interested in to find out more about that woodland.
Where the names in the first column is hyperlinked
this links to one of our Location pages, with more information on and over time more of these will be added, we will be delighted if some of
you would like to also produce location pages.
