Carrying on around the Llŷn Peninsula this 83 mile stage takes you across stunning cliff top walks, dropping down into Abersoch, with its colourful beach huts, past the unusual Mediterranean inspired village of Portmeirion, designed by Sir Clough Williams-Ellis, famously used as a location for the 60s cult series, The Prisoner.
On this stretch you will see Criccieth and Harlech Castles which, together with Caernafon Castle, were part of Edward I’s 13th century campaign to conquer North Wales.
This stage will be walked by Steve Jones and his team.

What fantastic way to raise money for soldiers and families affected by active service. Robinsons is really pleased to be sponsoring this campaign and hopefully the walkers will pop into a Robinsons pub en route to enjoy our hospitality.
