Directions
Beach car park to Bwrdd Arthur
From the beach car park cross the road towards the sea along a boardwalk, then turn right and walk along the beach. At the end there is a wooden footbridge over a stream.
Follow the Coast Path sign over the bridge along the edge of the beach and up the second set of steps to a kissing-gate. Turn left and walk alongside the hedge through two fields to the next kissing-gate.
Follow the grassy path uphill towards two houses and another kissing-gate. Continue bearing right uphill and through the kissing-gate by a telegraph pole.
Follow the Coast Path sign and turn right up the track heading inland. Where the track levels off at a right-hand bend, go left through the kissing-gate and follow the new path over the small footbridge to another kissing-gate.
Follow the yellow waymarker across the steep field to the metal gate in the corner.
Follow the path through the woods to a kissing-gate, and turn right up the steep flight of steps to a crossroads on the path. Go straight ahead across the track, leaving the Coast Path and up through the gorse to another kissing-gate and onto National Trust land Bryn Offa.
Follow the path along the field edge through a kissing-gate to where it joins the road at a wooden gate.
Here it is worth making the short diversion to the top of Bwrdd Arthur: follow the path inside the fence parallel with the road. Shortly, a clear path goes uphill to the left and zigzags its way up to the trig point. Then retrace your steps back to the wooden gate.
Bwrdd Arthur to Pen Rallt
Turn right onto the road and take the first road right named Lôn Goch. By a white stone marked Castell Cottage leave the road and head straight ahead down the track.
Please note: from this point on, many of the tracks can be wet, muddy, and possibly overgrown. A shorter and easier route would be to follow the tarmacked road downhill to the sea and back to the start at the car park.
When the track turns sharp left continue straight ahead down the footpath between the hedges. Go down steps at the end by the drain outside Tros yr Afon.
Turn left up the steep concrete drive and continue on up the muddy hedge-lined track. Keep walking uphill and when the path reaches a wire fence, bear right onto a flatter, gravel path.
Cross the shallow ford, and you reach farm buildings. Bear right keeping the buildings on the left, follow the path to a gate, and turn right along the road at Pen Rallt.
Pen Rallt to the beach car park
Walk past Hafod y Rhug on the right and after approximately 100m turn left at the footpath sign, down a double-track towards the sea.
When this track bends right and you see a collection of houses, turn left onto the grass and head for the nearby kissing-gate. Here the footpath splits so take the one going uphill as it is less churned up by livestock.
Find a kissing-gate through the gorse above the white house, and follow the metal fence at the edge of the woods to emerge by the gates of the same white house, Cae Maes Mawr.
Bear left onto the road and follow it downhill all the way back to the beach car park.
