Wonderful walk from Chepstow to Knighton, beautiful countryside and lovely places to stay. You are literally walking in the footsteps of history. Can be hard work, but worth the effort.

Walked from Brecon to Talybont along the tow path and what a fantastic walk !! Managed a quick refresher at the Royal Oak in Pencelli (right on the canalside) - super little pub.

Started at Barmouth Beach and walked over the bridge (a train came across at the same time!) It was sunny and such a nice stroll. Bikes overtook us, as did joggers but it didn't matter! We walked from Barmouth to the George 111 pub, and then onto dolleglau. It was about 9 miles so we got the bus back (free on weekends) It's a flat walk and can be done at any pace. I might even try to do a bike next time!!
7. Pembrokeshire Coast Path

The Pembrokeshire Coast Path National Trail twists and turns its way through 186 miles of the most breathtaking coastal scenery in Britain. From St Dogmaels in the north to Amroth in the south, the trail covers almost every kind of maritime landscape from rugged cliff tops and sheltered coves to wide-open beaches and winding estuaries. Lying almost entirely within the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park -Britain's only coastal national park - the trail displays an array of coastal flowers and bird life, as well as evidence of human activity from Neolithic times to the present. In its entirety the Coast Path represents a formidable physical challenge - its 35,000 feet of ascent and descent is said to be equivalent to climbing Everest - yet it can also be enjoyed in shorter sections, accessible to people of all ages and abilities, with the small coastal villages strung out along its length offering welcome breaks and added enjoyment. Both the Wales Coast Path [WCP](opened 5th May 2012) and the International Appalachian Trail [IAT](since October 2010) follow the route of the Pembrokeshire Coast Path through Pembrokeshire.

Wonderful walking along the Pembrokeshire Coast Path, with wonderful spectacular views. There was, during the 2 stints that I walked the Pembrokeshire Coast Path, a couple of days of foul weather. A balanced mixture of ascents and descents while embarking upon the walk

If you venture off the beaten paths here - starting at the corner through the style you are treated to some lovely hidden paths. Nothing wrong with the bigger paths but I prefer wandering through the older parts of the woods where the trees are closer together and the path less obvious.

Beautiful walk from small car park with family and dog well worth a visit to swim and jump into the pools. Luckily we had gorgeous weather but I’m sure it’s well worth the walk at anytime dramatic picturesque place. No toilets but beautiful picnic Place
