Heritage attractions are The Ruthin Gaol which stands on the site that was first used as a prison in 1684 and Nantclwyd House, a 15th century timber-framed town house which reopened to the public in March and won the 2008 Welsh Building Conservation Award from the Royal Institute of Chartered Surveyors. Ruthin has many interesting walks in the area as well as hill walking in the nearby mountains. Ruthin Castle Gardens are seep in history as they are enclosed in the original 13 century gardens. Ruthin has a good range of shops for its size, with interesting 'niche' shops in the town.

Ruthin has a leisure centre which houses a swimming pool in Brynhyfryd School. Vale Country Club is a fitness club and there is Ruthin tennis club. Just a few miles outside Ruthin in a village called Pwllglas is a golf club. The Clubhouse and course offer panoramic views of the Vale of Clwyd and the Clwydian Range beyond. There is a Craft centre that recently opened.

In the surrounding areas, there is white water rafting near Bala, clay pigeon shooting in Llandegla, and go karting in Cerrig-y-Drudion.
