Kidwelly to Llanelli

A walk following the Sustrans cycle route and with a 2.5km section on a quiet single-track country road just outside Kidwelly (passing places and a grass verge for most of it).

Coastal: three fifths along the coast.

Time: 5h–10h

Warnings: The single-track country road outside Kidwelly may carry cars and farm traffic.

Walk details: Slow Ways.

Kidwelly to Pembrey and Burry Port

A flat route primarily following National Cycle Network Route 4 on tarmac and compact surfaces and with quiet country lanes and a stretch on the main road out of Kidwelly. Good for accessibility and navigation but hard on the knees with so much tarmac. Follows National Cycle Network Route 4. A signposted diversion into Pembrey Country Park is available. St Mary's Church and Kidwelly Castle are worth a visit near the Kidwelly end. A resident kingfisher near the Ashburnham Hotel.

Time: 2h30–5h

Warnings: Follows a busy road for a quarter of the walk. A small rise on the main road out of Kidwelly, with a narrow pavement in places; it is more than a quarter of the route before getting off the main roads.

Walk details: Slow Ways.

Reverse direction: Railwalks.
