Overview

The Gwaun valley situated in Northern Pembrokeshire is scenically attractive due to its steep wooded sides. The walk starts at Sychbant going in a westerly direction to Mynydd Melin farm before descending back down to the Gwaun valley at Cilrhedyn bridge where a route East along the valley brings one back to Sychbant via Pontfaen.
