Pembrokeshire
Walks
The
Wales Coast Path and stretches for 870 miles. My
Pembrokeshire walks, described below, make use of some parts of this path
which in turn are part of the 186 Pembrokeshire Coast Path section. Using a
combination of footpaths and lanes creates circular walks. As with most long
distance footpaths, the acorn sign keeps you on the correct path and a typical
example seen in Pembrokeshire is on the right.
The Wales Coast Path, now complete along the
whole coast of Wales, provides some great walking opportunities and is an
important element in my walks. It is well signposted.
There are a series of Wales
Coast Path Official Guides
I was very impressed by the
condition of the gates on the coast path. Even the hinges had been greased!
The Pembrokeshire coast is well served by small buses with delightful names:
-
Puffin Shuttle
-
Coastal Cruiser
-
Celtic Coaster
-
Strumble Shuttle
-
Poppit Rocket
These make linear walks
possible, breaking the 186 miles into manageable portions. Timetables can be
obtained here.
The coastline is very varied
with a mixture of lovely sandy beaches and dramatic cliffs and headlands.
From a walkers point of view, despite the plunging cliffs, the walks along
their tops are relatively level.
There are a number of attractive
towns and villages, not least St Davids, Tenby and Solva.
