Berwyn is a settlement in Denbighshire, Wales. The settlement is situated a mile north-west of Llangollen and is adjacent to the River Dee. [1] The Horseshoe Falls is nearby. Berwyn has a station on the Llangollen Railway. [2]

Despite the name, it is not particularly close to the hill Cadair Berwyn, the highest point in the county, or the Berwyn range of hills, being in the Dee valley. [3]
