Pembrokeshire Walking on the Level, Norman Buckley.  Published June 10.

ISBN: 9781850588610 - Pembrokeshire Walking on the Level

 

Pembrokeshire and Carmarthenshire Walks, Tom Hutton - Although deep in South Wales, Pembrokeshire and Carmarthenshire have a strong English influence, but their most striking feature, from the point of view of the walker, is that they contain some of the most spectacular coastal scenery and finest stretches of coast path in Britain. Although the walks in this guide inevitably concentrate on the coast, especially using the Pembrokeshire Coast Path, their characters vary considerably, ranging from the splendid cliff scenery around the peninsula of Dinas Island and to the west of Port-Eynon Bay, to the wooded stretches between Saundersfoot and Tenby. Pathfinder Guides are Britain's best loved walking guides. They are the perfect companion for country walks throughout Britain. Each title features 28 circular walks with easy-to-follow route descriptions, all tried and tested by seasoned walkers. The routes range from extended strolls to exhilarating hikes, so there is something for everyone. Published January 11.

Pathfinder Pembrokeshire and Carmarthenshire, Tom  Hutton - Although deep in South Wales, Pembrokeshire and Carmarthenshire have a strong English influence, but their most striking feature, from the point of view of the walker, is that they contain some of the most spectacular coastal scenery and finest stretches of coast path in Britain.

With 40 routes ranging between 2 and 12 miles (20km), there is something for everyone, often incorporating places to visit or a welcoming pub or cafe en route.  Published December 07. K

ISBN: 9781852844318 - Walking in Pembrokeshire

The Pembrokeshire Coastal Path, A Practical Guide for Walkers, Dennis Kelsall - 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. At any time of the year there is much to see as the continuing cycle of nature successively reveals its different moods and aspects. 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. The long-distance walk is divided into 15 clear sections of between 7 and 19 miles. "The Pembrokeshire Coastal Path" provides an almost unique association of natural beauty, habitat, variety and mood, which is readily accessible to lovers of the countryside throughout the year.  Published August 08.

There are rolling hills, deep valleys, lakes, castles, waterfalls and large tracts of forest. The western edge of the Black Mountain or Carmarthen Fan is an easy drive from the town into the heart of this dramatic and wild area. Llandovery is situated on the ‘Heart of Wales’ railway that runs from Swansea to Shrewsbury and this rail journey is one of the finest in Wales. Whatever your level of fitness you will find, in these pages, walks to suit all abilities and tastes. There are 23 walks in this book.  Limited availability. Published June 11
