Winding around the coast from St Dogmaels to Amroth, it clings to soaring cliff tops, seeks out fabulous sweeping beaches like Marloes Sands and Freshwater West, visits lovely towns like St David’s and Tenby, castles at Manorbier and Pembroke, and is rich in wildlife from teeming seabird colonies to the rare chough.

It is now part of the Welsh Coast Path, fully open in 2012.

Whether you’re a long-distance walker or a holiday stroller, this is the only book you need.
