The Lleyn Peninsula Coastal Path,
Jon Cantrell - The western coastline of England and Wales has three
peninsulas pushing out into the sea. The Cornish and Pembroke peninsulas
have famous coastal paths, but while the Lleyn cannot match the sheer
scale of its big brothers, it has no trouble competing when it comes to
grandeur of scenery. For hundreds of years pilgrims have walked this coast
to reach the holy island of Bardsey at the tip of the peninsula. The route
connects the historic pilgrim sites dating back to the 6th century. In
doing so its 90 miles cross a variety of landscapes from rocky cliffs to
secluded bays. The route is suitable for cyclists, particularly those
riding mountain bikes. Details of cycle routes are included. Each chapter
of the guide ends with two or three shorter or circular walks which
provide a taste of the different sections of the Lleyn. Published June 06.
