A return ticket costs £8.50 in June 2025. It's beautiful up there! There's a café, a mini golf course, a camera obscura (£1), and plenty of amazing views!

For £8.50 (as of June 2025), take the Cliff Railway, arrive at the top of Constitution Hill, and enjoy wonderful views of Aberystwyth. The views in other directions are also worth the ride.

Although they were often erected a century ago (very often after the First World War from 1914 to 1918), the "war memorials" found almost everywhere in villages and towns are by no means mere relics of a bygone era. They still commemorate the victims of war and tyranny today. The design of the memorials varies from place to place, but they all have one thing in common: they continually remind us of the need to preserve peace.

From this vantage point you are treated to breathtaking views of the picturesque Tan Y Bwlch Beach which boasts golden sands and clear blue waters. The beach is beautifully framed by farmland and rolling hills with Aberystwyth city visible in the distance.
