Details
1.45pm
The walk begins at the View Point above Patch estuary on the Gwbert Road at 2pm. There is very limited parking at the view point, so we are suggesting that we lift share. If you feel you’re able to offer a lift to another walker, please let us know. There is no parking at Small World Theatre. Please park behind The Guildhall or Mwldan before joining Ann and Bill in Small World Theatre at 1.45pm.
The route
Starting from the View Point above Patch estuary, we will walk Coastal Path route into town observing rich coastal wildlife and wonderful views through fields and woodland. We'll find traces of Cardigan’s historic ship building and evidence of human impact as we pass by Aberteifi's sewage works and the Mwldan Flood Alleviation Scheme.
The walk includes some rough terrain - please wear sturdy shoes. Free to attend.
It would be useful to know if you’re coming so we know we have enough cake… please email
