We had another week in Anglesey at a lovely caravan once again. We awoke and waited for the rain to pass before making the short drive to Cemlyn Bay once again, parking at the car park that was cut off from the tide on our last visit (yesterday) ///shaky.clubbing.absorb Setting off once again on a walk where we would reach a certain point and head back. We were hoping to get to a beach just after Carmel Head, but our plans were foiled once I spotted a sign along the way saying a section of the path was closed until the end of Feb (I think it closes every year) so Once at the chimney (To use as a reference point for our next walk) we turned back and walked back to the car. This was another spectacular walk as once again we spotted a few seals along the way on small shingle beaches below. There are no amenities along this stretch, just countryside and the sea, which we loved.
Starting at the Cemlyn Bay Bryn Aber: ///shaky.clubbing.absorb We take the pathway leading away from the car park at the opposite end from the entrance you drove in. This is a track which heads towards a shingle beach but turns left just before the beach, you pass through two large stone gate posts and a memorial alongside the path as well as a beach on your right hand side. As you approach the headland and the edge of the field that you are on the outside of on your left hand side the path takes a left and a left again around the edge of the field. As you go left just before the next beach you pass through into the field, keep right and head straight in the field that goes uphill. You pass into a second field and keeping right into a third field and then a fourth where you will bear right, keeping to the right hand side of the field as it bends around the edge of the coast. Keeping to the edge of the fields, After the fifth field you pass through in the far corner and are now on the outside of the fields once again following the path with fields to your left and the sea down below on your right hand side. Keeping to the path until you once again pass into a field ///clearcut.shrimp.revives Continue keeping right walk down to the far end of this field (Downhill now) ///spurned.unheated.meal Passing through into the next and keeping right again you are sent down to a track next to a beach. ///shapes.mondays.tango Continue ahead. Following the track around to the right after it passes the far end of the beach. ///bunny.clarifies.montage Passing through into the next field you need to bear left and head to a gate not quite in the far corner but heading that way ///housework.escape.wallet Pass through and head straight ahead in this shorter field. Heading into the next one ///grips.universe.barstool and keeping to near the edge of the coastline for a while. Eventually passing through a stone wall ///form.stooping.online and heading down to a small wooden bridge ///decimals.spout.includes which crosses a small stream running into the sea. On the far side of the bridge, there is a steep embankment in front of you, turn left and head up the slope, then right across the field looking for the exit on the far side roughly in line with the bridge. ///landowner.cheetahs.lowest Continuing through onto this large field, keeping towards the coastline at the far end is another slight drop down to another small footbridge. ///upsetting.tent.munched Pass down and cross the next footbridge. ///drainage.allergy.fuses Then follow the path on the opposite side, passing through another stone wall. ///unhappily.views.embodied Follow the lightly trodden path leads you to another small wooden footbridge over a small ravine ///registers.update.valid Cross here and follow the path to and past another stone wall, ///rewriting.mercy.wiping Continue along the lightly trodden path as it slightly bears right and towards the large white stone spire structure (The one closest to the sea of the two) ///hello.whizzed.realm Continuing past the structure and heading to a small wooden footbridge once again over a ditch. ///blueberry.glove.maybe Cross the bridge and there may be an electric fence wire you need to pass through (There was when we walked this section) There is usually a rubber handle (A bit like a bicycle handle on a handlebar) to hold and remove the wire from a hook, and then hook back once through. As you pass through bear diagonally right and head for the large chimney stack. This is where this section of our walk ends. We will continue from here in part 18. ///pram.roadmap.motored
