Walk On Wales

It passes through Tenby, a bustling, pretty seaside town with pastel-coloured buildings and an intriguing Palmerston Fort perched on a rocky island. From the path there are great views out to Caldey Island, home to a religious community since the sixth century. Continuing along this stage the path reaches the estuaries of Carmarthenshire and passes the romantic ruins of Laugharne, Llansteffan & Kidwelly Castles. At Laugharne you will find The Boathouse, home to Wales’ most famous poet, Dylan Thomas. On the way to Burry Port is Pembrey Forest, a nature reserve managed by the Forestry Commission. Planted in sand dunes, the Corsican pines and deciduous trees grow on what was once a huge explosives factory, employing up to 3000 people to manufacture TNT during the First and Second World Wars.

This stage will be walked by Rob Davies and his team.
