Meirionnydd Coast Walk

Gwynedd

This is a walk by standing stones, stone circles and holy wells. The end of the Dyfi Valley Way is passed near the start of the Walk and the Cambrian Way is met briefly at Barmouth Railway Bridge where pedestrians pay a toll. Barmouth and Harlech are visited and the walk links with the Lleyn Peninsula Coastal Path at its end.

UPDATE October 2020 - Work to start upgrading the 150 year old Barmouth Viaduct starts in September 2020. It will affect the route of the path as it goes over the viaduct across the Mawddawch Estuary. During this upgrade the bridge will be closed temporarily on certain dates.
An alternative route is being looked into for walkers on the path and will be posted on this page. If you are planning to walk in this area, we suggest you also follow Network Rail social media for updates.
