Welcome to Bikely, take a step by step tour of this path:
Press Start Tour - then use the navigation buttons below to move along the path.
This is based very very loosely around the Pembrokeshire Coast path. Since we can't ride on footpaths, the idea was a MTB route drawing some inspiration from the coastal path. As always with me the emphasis is to get off-road otherwise I'd have just followed the coastal road. I've ridden all but the 3 most easterly off-road sections.
