The Lleyn Peninsula Coastal Path

John Cantrell is retired and lives in Snowdonia. He took to the outdoors at an early age and has skiied, walked and climbed all over Europe. His first guide was a history of Sarn Helen, bringing new interest to the roman roads of Wales. This is the second edition of his successful Lleyn Peninsula guide, which covers some of his favourite local walking and cycling routes.
