Miles of
quiet country lanes make this an ideal way to explore the peninsula.
The Millennium cycle way "Celtic Way West" passes through
the area, but you might be better working out your own circular
routes from the Ordnance Survey maps.
Cycle hire available in St Davids
There is not much off-road cycling in the area, and the Coast path
is definitely for walkers only.
