In 16 day stages from Porthmadog to St Dogmaels, this guide offers all the information walkers need to complete the 233km (145 miles) of the Wales Coast Path that curve down Cardigan Bay, passing through a range of contrasting landscapes.
Linking the Lln Peninsula Coast Path with that of Pembrokeshire, this section takes in Snowdonia National Park’s splendid coastal plains, leads inland through beautiful hill country around the Dyfi Estuary and follows some of the finest coastline in all of Wales on the Ceredigion Coast Path.
Untouched fishing villages mingle with university towns and medieval castles, ensuring plentiful sights and seascape views, from sandy beaches, dramatic cliffs, peaceful estuaries and coastal hills. And with excellent public transport links, you don't have to tackle it all at once. It's easy to split into short breaks and day walks as suits your schedule.
