Encompassing the southern half of Cardigan Bay on the wild west coast of Wales, Ceredigion is famed for its glorious sandy beaches, dramatic sea cliffs and caves, spectacular sunsets and a wonderful array of wildlife, including the largest colony of bottlenose dolphins in Europe. Away from the sea, rolling farmland, fertile river valleys and characterful market towns give way to the brooding Cambrian Mountains, the main watershed of Wales. As one of the least populated regions of Wales, there is plenty of room to walk and in these 40 rambles Julian Rollins leads you through the best countryside and seascapes Ceredigion has to offer.

The 40 moderate walks in this volume from award winning publisher Pocket Mountains, explore the stunning coastline as well as the heartland of the county, with several routes making use of sections of established long- distance walking trails.

From the awe-inspiring, rock-strewn uplands of Snowdonia to the rugged beauty of the Pembrokeshire islands, Wales is blessed with more than its fair share of natural wonders. In Wilder Wales, writer Julian Rollins and photographer Drew Buckley explore the very best of these landscapes, visiting a dozen of the nation’s key wildlife locations month by calendar month. Packed with useful information about where, when and how to see the Welsh countryside, Wilder Wales encounters both the familiar (puffins, dolphins, grey seals) and the dramatic (the black grouse’s ‘danceoff’ at dawn) in a compelling almanac of nature photography. This new compact edition makes Wilder Wales an affordable, portable and practical guide to Wales at its engaging and spectacular best.

Carmarthenshire is the largest of the old Welsh counties andnestles between Pembrokeshire and the Gower Peninsula in the heart of South West Wales. This guide explores this land of contrasts.
