  The Pembrokeshire Coastal Path National Trail is a 182 mile walk from Amroth, near Tenby to St Dogmaels, north of Newport. The walk in this guidebook is divided into 15 clear sections of between 7 and 19 miles. There is immense variety in both the scenery and natural life of the Pembrokeshire coast and its exploration can be equally satisfying for serious walkers and those more inclined to potter. This guide is designed to assist in the planning of a long-distance walk as well as to provide a companion to point out some of the interesting features along the way. The contorted nature of the coast creates many sections that can conveniently be walked on a day basis, and a separate chapter suggests some possibilities. An accommodation guide, distance charts, and access and transport points provide additional information, together with an informative introduction which includes the region's geology, history, flora and fauna, topography and weather conditions. Short lengths of the way pass through towns and villages, but the majority is along open coast, where you may hardly meet another person all day.
