Bae Ceibwr Coastal Run

Route Overview & Local Insights

Tackling the Bae Ceibwr Coastal Run is a quintessential Pembrokeshire experience, offering an exhilarating 10.2km out-and-back journey along the rugged cliffs of Nevern. This isn't your average flat 10k; with nearly 400m of ascent across grassy and rocky trails, your legs will certainly feel the burn on the frequent, steep undulations. As you navigate the winding Pembrokeshire Coast Path, you'll be treated to dramatic vistas of the Irish Sea and the iconic folded rock strata that define this stretch of coastline. Keep your eyes peeled for choughs, razorbills, and the occasional Atlantic grey seal bobbing in the secluded coves beneath the cliffs.

The area around Bae Ceibwr (Ceibwr Bay) is steeped in geological and Iron Age history, once serving as a small port for the nearby village of Moylgrove. The towering cliffs of the Witches' Cauldron (Pwll y Wrach) lie just along this route, where a collapsed sea cave creates a spectacular natural blowhole. This landscape has remained largely unchanged for centuries, offering runners a sense of wild isolation. After finishing your run, a short trip inland to Nevern allows for a visit to the famous 'bleeding' Yew tree and ancient Celtic crosses, providing a perfect cultural bookend to a challenging morning on the trails.
