Guided Walk along the Preseli Hills

Pembrokeshire's hill range is known as Mynydd Preseli in Welsh, the Preseli Mountains. But the string of hills are modest mountains, with no summit topping 1, 760ft (536m). The route takes us along the Golden Road, which is a 7. 5 mile walk across the spine of the hills. You can usually see all of Pembrokeshire, while on a clear day you can make out the Wicklow Hills in Ireland, and Snowdonia in the north of Wales. For first-time walkers it's usually love at first visit. This undulating route, links ancient monuments and burial places, cairns and rocky tors. Foel Drygarn, Carn Menyn, Carn Bica, Carn Goedog, Cerrigmarchogion, Foel Feddau and Foel Cwmcerwyn are to name a few places that we will visit on the walk. The most famous locations on the route are the two possible quarries from which stones are believed to have been taken to Stonehenge 4000 years ago, Carn Menyn & Carn Goedog.

• Meet at 10am with a walk briefing to discuss the weather, clothing, route and expectations. The route is generally well maintained but is wet and steep in places. Appropriate walking footware is a must. There will be plenty of time during the day to take pictures and we will stop at a scenic spot to enjoy your picnic. • The mornings walk will be challenging in some places but the rewards at the end of the steep climb will be well worth it with stunning views. • The walk will finish at Bwlch Gwynt Car Park, where we can plan in advance to arrange transport or collection
