Description of the contract
Cyflwyniad
Mae Ardal o Harddwch Naturiol Eithriadol Bryniau Clwyd a Dyffryn Dyfrdwy yn ffurfio ffin ucheldir dramatig gogledd Cymru, un o uchafbwyntiau golygfaol ysgytiol Prydain, ac mae’n cynnwys Safle Treftadaeth y Byd Traphont Ddŵr a Chamlas Pontcysyllte.
Mae'r AHNE yn cynnwys cyfuniad dramatig o fryniau gwyntog, rhostir grug, creigiau calchfaen a dyffrynnoedd coediog, sydd bron yn cyffwrdd yr arfordir ar Lechwedd Prestatyn yn y gogledd ac yn ymestyn mor bell i’r de â Moel Fferna, pwynt uchaf yr AHNE, sy’n 630 metr.
Mae Llwybr Cenedlaethol Clawdd Offa, sy’n dwyn i gof ffiniau hynafol Cymru, yn llwybr bythol bresennol ar hyd asgwrn cefn y darn hwn o dir. Mae’n cysylltu mannau arbennig yr ardal, a hefyd mae’n gyswllt â’r gororau deheuol a Llwybr Arfordir Cymru.
Mae’r ardal yn denu nifer sylweddol – a chynyddol – o ymwelwyr bob blwyddyn, a chyda phandemig diweddar COVID-19, y mae eisoes dystiolaeth o dwf yn nifer y teithwyr domestig, sy'n her o ran rheoli ein mannau mwyaf poblogaidd, a rheoli’r effaith amgylcheddol arnynt.
Mae tîm rheoli AHNE Bryniau Clwyd a Dyffryn Dyfrdwy a’u partneriaid yn dymuno comisiynu rhywun i adolygu, datblygu a chyhoeddi Strategaeth Twristiaeth Gynaliadwy a Chynllun Gweithredu Pum Mlynedd.
Bwriad
Cynnal proses ymgynghori drwyadl gyda budd-ddeiliaid perthnasol er mwyn llywio'r gwaith o ddatblygu a chyhoeddi Strategaeth Twristiaeth Gynaliadwy a Chynllun Gweithredu Pum Mlynedd i arwain gwaith yr AHNE mewn amgylchedd ôl-Covid.
Introduction.
Clwydian Range and Dee Valley Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) forms the dramatic upland frontier of north Wales, one of Britain’s unmissable scenic highlights and includes the Pontcysyllte Aqueduct and canal World Heritage Site (WHS).
This AONB is made up of a dramatic combination of windswept hilltops, heather moorland, limestone crags and wooded valleys, almost touching the coast at Prestatyn Hillside in the north and stretches south as brooding Moel Fferna, the highest point in the AONB at 630 metres.
Offa’s Dyke National Trail is an ever‐present pathway along this land’s spine, recalling the ancient margins of Wales. It links up the area’s special places, as well as connecting with the southern marches and Wales Coast Path beyond.
The area attracts significant – and growing – numbers of visitors every year and with the recent Covid-19 Pandemic there is already evidence of an upsurge of domestic travellers which is proving challenging for the management of and environmental impact of honeypot sites in particular.
The Clwydian Range and Dee Valley AONB management team & partners wish to commission the review, development and publication of a Sustainable Tourism Strategy and Five Year Action Plan.
Aim
To carry out a thorough consultation process with relevant stakeholders to inform the development and publication of a Sustainable Tourism Strategy and five Year Action Plan to guide the AONB’s work in a post Covid environment.
