The Pembrokeshire Coast Path, the first National Trail in Wales. Opened in 1970, the usual route is to travel from Poppit in the north to Amroth on the south coast. The National Parks Authority has numbered the stiles along the path, with number 1 at the Poppit end of the trail. The 186 mile coastal Path meanders through some of the most ruggedly pictureseque scenery in the world with outstanding views of charming in-lets leading peacful golden beaches, mysterious smugglers caves and spectacular natural formations such as the Green Bridge of Wales shaped by time and tide. Thr route via Tenby, Pembroke and Fishguard includes some of the most spectacular coastal walking in Britain, mainly along clifftops.. PanelAside from the magnificent coastal scenery, the Path takes in no less than 17 Sites of Scientific Interest (SSSI), two nature reserves, and Wales' only marine nature reserve. The cliff tops offer wonderful expanses of wildflowers in Spring. The cliffs at Pwll Granantare, near Ceibwr Bay, are especially notable for their spectacular folds of sandstone and mudstone. Wide variety of birds nest along the cliffs, and grey seals can often be seen in the water below.
