Pembrokshire Coast Path National Trail 

Considered to be some of Britain’s most wonderful coastline the trail provides the opportunity to marvel at breathtaking landscapes of dramatic rock, clifftops, beaches, and charming towns.

That being said if you have your heart set on experiencing the beauties of the Pembrokshire Coast but aren’t so confident in your capabilities there are less challenging options such as the trail between Stack Rock and The Green Bridge of Wales to St Govan’s Chapel.
