1. Cwm Tydu - a perfect picnic spot below the old
lime kiln or why not walk out the first half mile to the stunning views
across to the Lleyn peninsula. The walk is steep to start but soon levels
to give you a clear view of the path ahead, dropping into tiny coves and
up again onto the cliff paths,
2. Seal Bay - The autumn months are the best to see the
young seals, but mature seals can often be seen basking in the sea. This
stretch of the coastline is little walked and it is possible to see adders
sunning themselves on the pathway.
3. Bird Rock - A site of special scientific interest with
colonies of nesting birds.
4. Coastguard Station - at most times of year the path here
is full of wild flowers from thrift early in the year to sea campion in
the summer.
5. New Quay - Here you can enjoy welcome refreshments overlooking
the sea or the chance to take a boat trip
to see seals and dolphins. From the town follow
the road uphill to a large public house at Penrhiwllan and here turn right
to follow the lane to Coybal Farm.
6. Byrlip - The pathway runs alongside the larger house
and towards the duckpond with stunning views across to the sea. An old
green lane then leads to your left and into Byrlip woods, at the right
time of year full of snowdrops, wood anemones and a waterfall set deep
in the woods. The path is then sign posted back to Cwm Tydu.
7. Back to Cwm Tydu and if you are staying at Ty
Hen , Park Hall,
Neuadd Farm or Romantic
Garden Holiday Cottage a short walk home.
