The ward of Arthog a Llangelynnin sits on the southern fringe of Snowdonia National Park in Gwynedd, Wales, straddling the dramatic Mawddach estuary and nearby upland moor. It takes in the small coastal settlements of Arthog and Llangelynnin, and is prized for sweeping estuary views, coastal walks and easy access to trails such as the Mawddach Trail.

Historically rooted in rural farming with some Victorian-era holiday development, the area today relies on tourism, holiday accommodation and agriculture, while retaining a strong Welsh-speaking community and notable heritage like its ancient parish church. Outdoor activities - hiking, birdwatching, kayaking on the estuary - and proximity to towns such as Barmouth help sustain local services and a seasonal visitor economy.
