Walks from Pembrey and Burry Port

Gorgeous off road route along the cycle path with far reaching views. A flat, easy and almost entirely off-road coastal walk along the Millennium Coastal Path and with far-reaching views over the Gower and several spots to drop down onto the beach. Well-signed and shared with cyclists. Follows the Wales Coast Path and National Cycle Network route 4. Plenty of picnic spots.

Coastal: nine tenths along the coast.

Time: 2h30–4h30

Lunch: Cafes at Burry Port harbour and Llanelli beach.

1 end-of-walk reward: the St Elli's Bay

Warnings: The path is part of the Sustrans national cycle network and cyclists frequently pass at speed, so take care with dogs off the lead or small children.

Walk details: Slow Ways.

Reverse direction: Railwalks.

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.
