Connect Cardigan with Slow Ways
We’re creating a network of walking routes that connect all of Britain’s towns, cities and national parks
more walks and reviews are needed to fully connect Cardigan to the verified network. Can you give a hike and help?

Slow Ways linking Cardigan and Crymych, New Quay, Newcastle Emlyn, Newport (Pembrokeshire)

Cardigan’s four Slow Ways are 44% checked
Help connect Cardigan
Many Slow Ways have several route options. Some will be better than others, or good for different reasons.
Our goal is for each Slow Way to have at least one route that is verified and surveyed. To be verified – and get its snail badge – a route needs at least three positive reviews.
Give a hike and help get a for every one of Cardigan’s Slow Ways.

Neil Summersgill added Newcar three, a new walk from Newport (Pembrokeshire) to Cardigan
Walk this routeStunning route (some clifftop, some woodland etc) following the Wales Coast Path- did this as part of a walk of the whole 870 mile trail and this had some of the best views of the whole 2 months, including waterfalls and seals. Easy to follow with the blue dragonshell signs and just keeping the sea on one side of you! Beaches and towns/villages along the way worth stopping at, definitely recommend this route....

Walked this in three stages as part of the Wales Coastal Path, though in the New Quay to Aberteifi direction. Fine cliff walking for the most part - part along the estuary provides quiet interlude....
Tony Claydon
I broke this walk up into two days. This is quite a challenging walk as there are continuous steep climbs and descents....
Neil Summersgill
Instead of turning sharply east at the visitor centre, it would be better to continue south and pass between Fforest Farm and Fforest Camp, come out on a minor road, cross one of the pedestrian bridges to Church St in Cilgerran, and then rejoin the suggested Slow Ways route by Cilgerran Castle....
