We like Shopping locally at Christmas. And at any other time to be honest. We always have done. It’s something that’s always been important to us. This year, maybe even more so. If you’re in Pembrokeshire and also like shopping locally at Christmas we can thoroughly recommend these great people. There are good reasons for …
There are so many walks in the Preseli Hills that you’re almost certain to find something to suit you. Short walks, long walks, summit walks and ridge walks. Something for everyone. We’ve written detailed posts on all of the ones below but this is a summary of what to expect from Preseli Hills walks. Foel …
The Golden Road is a 7 mile hike across the entire range of the Preseli Hills in Pembrokeshire. It’s where the Bluestones at Stonehenge are believed to be from and the route takes you through some of the most likely sites. Although Archaeologists aren’t certain of the origins or purpose of the Golden Road, that …
Foel Cwmcerwyn is the highest mountain in the Preseli Hills in Pembrokeshire. In fact, at 536m, it’s the highest mountain in West Wales. As it’s uphill all the way, with an elevation gain of around 300 metres in around 2 miles, this is not the easiest walk in the Preseli Hills. But it’s totally worth …
Under a mile long, the walk to Foel Eryr is the shortest, and probably easiest in the Preseli Hills that we know of. And we live here! That’s mainly due to the fact that parking for this walk is so convenient and so high up! 404 metres up to be exact. Even the views from …
We hadn’t planned this walk up Foel Drygarn but it was a nice day and it seemed a shame to waste it. And besides, there’s something really good about throwing some gear in the back of the car and setting off first thing on the spur of the moment isn’t there? Unplanned and unscheduled, but …
There are so many walks in Pembrokeshire that you’re almost certain to find something to suit you. Walks on the Pembrokeshire Coast, walks in the mountains, circular walks and a few in the Gwaun Valley. Something for everyone. Over the coming months we’ll be writing about almost all of them but, for now, this is …
The Dinas Head walk is one of a number of Circular walks in Pembrokeshire. We like a circular walk because you finish where you start without covering the same ground twice. There are also no headaches over the logistics, provided you know how to get there and where to park. We’ve got that covered. Even …
There are at least 4 waterfalls around Pembrokeshire that we are aware of, and each of them is quite different from the others. One in the Preseli Hills, one in the woods, one in the heart of a village and one on a beach. Yes, a beach! Some are easier to get to than others …
The Preseli Hills Crash Site is where the crew of a World War II aeroplane came down during a night flight on the 19th of September 1944. Sadly, of the 9 that were on board, 6 RAF servicemen lost their lives when the Liberator bomber crashed just below the top of one of the hills near …
