Walk the inland trails and sandy coastline of Carmarthenshire on the Wales Coast Path.
From £465 per person
The Carmarthenshire Coast Path differs from the rest of the Wales Coast Path due to its dramatically contrasting scenery, built by frequent trips inland through a gentle countryside of fields and woodlands.
While the coastal sections of the Carmarthenshire Coast Path may seem limited, the spectacular views upon reaching them certainly do not disappoint. The many wonderful towns and villages along the way are well-stocked with a full range of facilities, with the most interesting example being Carmarthen itself, one of the oldest towns in Wales.
The undulating and changeable terrain provides plenty of interest to keep walkers engaged, and features a wonderfully diverse mixture of quiet forest paths, rugged clifftop trails and rolling green hills. A stunning walking holiday full of Welsh character.
Looking to complete the full Wales Coast Path? This itinerary links up perfectly with the Pembrokeshire Coast Path to the west and the Gower Coast Path to the west.

Rounding the tidal channel of Afon Taff and watching the gentle waterside scenery and wildlife.
