Penclegyr

There is some great sea cliff climbing to be had from here. Park in the village of Porthgain. Follow the walking route on the Pembrokshire coastal path towards Traeth Llyfn. If you are facing the sea standing on the left side of the harbour you will find some steep steps leading out West over the sea cliffs. Follow the coastal path for about 10 mins ignoring the right fork towards the remains of some red brick buildings. After passing the quarry on the right, follow the minor path out rightwards to the headland. For a full list of routes check out Penclegyr East in the Porthgain area in the Pembroke North climbing guide. At one time, the harbour exported slate from quarries a few miles south at Abereiddy, Trwynllwyd and Porthgain itself. Abereiddy and the quarries to the South were linked by a tramway. The harbour, still home to local fishermen, it can get very busy in the summer with recreational boaters. Porthgain also has a small bistro (The Shed Bistro) that has a take away service
