Our walk today follows the Wales Coastal Path from Llanbedrog to Pwllheli. Much of the walk is along the route of the old tramway built by the developer Solomon Andrews in the late 19th century. The tramway was originally constructed to carry building stone from the quarry and Craig y Defaid to Pwllheli. It was later extended to Llanbedrog and opened to passengers, until it eventually ceased operating in 1927 when much of the line was destroyed in a storm.
We start by visiting the café at the Plas Glyn-y-Weddw arts centre in Llanbedrog for a tea or coffee before the walk. (Anyone wishing to go up to see the Ironman sculpture on the cliff will have time to do so while others are in the Café.) We then head on the Coastal Path to Craig y Defaid and onward to Pwllheli.
