Book description
The Pembrokeshire Coastal Path National Trail is a 182 mile walk from
Amroth, near Tenby to St Dogmaels, north of Newport. The walk in this
guidebook is divided into 15 clear sections of between 7 and 19 miles.
There is immense variety in both the scenery and natural life of the
Pembrokeshire coast and its exploration can be equally satisfying for
serious walkers and those more inclined to potter. This guide is
designed to assist in the planning of a long-distance walk as well as to
provide a companion to point out some of the interesting features along
the way. The contorted nature of the coast creates many sections that
can conveniently be walked on a day basis, and a separate chapter
suggests some possibilities. An accommodation guide, distance charts,
and access and transport points provide additional information, together
with an informative introduction which includes the region's geology,
history, flora and fauna, topography and weather conditions. Short
lengths of the way pass through towns and villages, but the majority is
along open coast, where you may hardly meet another person all day.
Dennis and Jan Kelsall are professional outdoor writers and
photographers, contributing to various magazines and producing a weekly
walking feature for the Lancashire Evening Post. They have a keen
interest in the environment, its geology, flora and wildlife.
