Welsh Estuary.
Welsh Estuary. by Matt Ridings Photography

A beautiful view of the estuary. A mix of field paths, quiet country roads and housing estates, with several narrow kissing gates and some elevation gains and losses. A long stretch follows a busy main road and with sections of narrow roadside footpath and crossings. Dafen park offers an optional picnic spot.

Warnings: Follows a busy road for a fifth of the walk. The A4138 is busy and difficult to cross, and there is a long, unpleasant 3km roadside walk into Dafen on a narrow footpath with constant traffic; staying on the south side is safer. A 700m gap in the main-road footpath is avoided via Llangennech.
