Day Walks on the Pembrokeshire Coast Guidebook

by: Harri Roberts
This excellent book features 20 classic coastal routes between 6.5 and 12.9 miles in length, suitable for hill walkers of all abilities. Local author and walker Harri Roberts shares his favourite walks in the national park, including a meander along Bosherston Lily Ponds, a series of interconnected lakes rich in wildlife; the 650-million-year old sea cliffs of St Brides, studded with the less common upland loving sessile oak; and retracing the steps of Wales's patron saint, from St Davids to St Justinian's.

This guide is a visual delight with lots of stunning colour photography throughout and full colour OS Explorer 1:25,000 mapping with each route clearly highlighted on the map. Each walk chapter begins with an introduction to the walk, describing its features and places of interest. Distance and navigation information, starting grid reference and refreshment stops are provided. This is followed by a detailed route finding section with numbered paragraphs linked to numbers on the OS route maps.
