At the northern end of Aberystwyth promenade Constitution Hill rises dramatically to provide a spectacular natural viewpoint. On a clear day it is possible to see 26 mountain peaks spanning much of the length of Wales.

The most relaxing way to enjoy this panorama is to travel by train on the longest electric cliff railway in Britain, which has been transporting visitors to the summit since opening in 1896.

Once at the summit visitors can experience the views afforded by the worlds largest camera obscura, which offers a birds eye view of 1000 square miles of land and seascape. Aside from these two technological masterpieces there are fascinating historical displays, a kids play area, a well-stocked gift shop, and a cafe selling delicious home-made snacks. With such a combination of attractions, and the opening of a new education centre in 2004, Constitution Hill is a great attraction for visitors of all ages.
