Pembrokeshire Coast Path

The Pembrokeshire Coast Path is Wales’s original National Trail, a 186 mile (299 km) long-distance walk running from St Dogmaels in the north to Amroth in the south. It strings together sea cliffs, estuaries, coves, beaches, headlands and small harbour villages, so the character changes constantly even though the route always stays tied to the coast. Some days feel remote and rugged, particularly on the more exposed western and southern sections, while others pass through easier stretches with regular villages, pubs, buses and short-hop access points. The official trail information describes the full path as a formidable challenge, with roughly 35,000 feet of ascent and descent over the whole line, but it is also one of the best British trails for section walking because transport, accommodation and escape points recur all along the route. Walkers usually tackle it north to south, following the way the guidebooks, gates and stiles are numbered, although the trail works in either direction.
