This linear walk follows a section of the Wales Coast Path on the northern side of the Llŷn Peninsular, between Morfa Nefyn and Towyn, finishing with a short stretch inland to Tudweiliog. We start by rounding the narrow headland of Trwyn Porth Dinllaen, heading out along a narrow path just above the shoreline, with lovely views to the east across the bay, and returning on the other side of the headland alongside the golf course. Our mainly level route continues over easy grassy pastures above low, rocky cliffs, occasionally dipping down to cross small streams. Look out for colonies of seals on the beaches below, and cormorants on the rocks. On reaching Towyn, we turn inland to follow a track to Tudweiliog where we await the bus back to Morfa Nefyn.
There is very little ascent or descent on this route. The (+) on the C grading is to reflect the initial path along the headland (which can be avoided if preferred by taking a higher route along an easy track) and a couple of other very short steeper sections.
