George III’s Golden Jubilee was meant to be marked at Moel Famau with a grand tower, started in 1810 and never finished. A storm brought the unfinished Jubilee Tower down in 1862, and the hill it stood on rises to 555 metres in the Clwydian Range.
The summit itself sits just inside Flintshire, so Denbighshire shares the hill, and the wider range has been an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty since 1985. For Denbighshire we have one local guide, a dog trainers directory. For everything else, the list sends you to a UK-wide guide.

Walking Moel Famau
At 555 metres, Moel Famau is a proper hill rather than a stroll, and the weather on the tops can change faster than it does in the car park. Take water for your dog, check the forecast, and wear shoes that cope with wet, uneven ground. We haven’t listed routes or dog rules, so check the Clwydian Range and Dee Valley AONB team for current guidance before you go. If you’d like help with lead manners before a hill day, the trainers directory above is the place to start.
Hill days, daily routines
Hill days make for active dogs. If you’d like to look at everyday extras, Calmshops has a dog vitamins and supplements collection. Ask your vet what, if anything, suits your dog.
