Departure from Amroth (Pembrokeshire)
This is a delightful walk climbing up from the coast by Amroth Castle through woodland and then traversing west through a farm to eventually reach Colby Woodland Garden, which is National Trust but has free entry to all visitors. Spend time in the garden before returning to the coast via a minor road and then east along the coastal path to the parking.
