This 4.5 mile starts a on the main road at Rhoslefain (grid ref: SH 574 060) and loops south with views of the sea and farmland. It passes through a traditional farmyard and an old quarry, before returning up a very quiet road, past the railway station. It's possible to vary the route via the beach and see the shingle spit and a very impressive footbridge.
We stayed at the Cae Du Campsite and in hindsight, would have returned via the beach rather than along the road.
