Walking and Cycling

WALKING

The Wales Coast path runs the length of the Carmarthenshire coastline from Amroth to Llanelli, a distance of some 27 miles (43km). There are habitats of all sorts including dunes, salt marshes, pine forests and beaches. For a walk with spectacular views, Amroth to Pendine takes in high clifftops and the famous Pendine Sands where many landspeed records were made. The section through Pembrey Country Park with its conifer forest takes you down onto to the sand dunes of Cefn Sidan beach.

Between Burry Port and Llanelli you join the Millennium Coastal Path which is wide and flat, ideal for buggies, wheelchairs and bikes. It runs through the Millennium Coastal Park around the Burry estuary, lapped by sandy beaches with the backdrop of a vibrant nature reserve. There are lots of parking spots and it's easy to access the path.
