Day 7: Abererch to Porthmadog

14.3 miles

             

      

 

The last leg of the journey and once more the route leaves the coast only this time follow a main road before re-joining the coast before the popular seaside resort of Criccieth. We had the good fortune to hit the town around lunch time and so enjoyed a portion of fish & chips on the sea front followed by some of the “world famous” ice cream – and all this without the boots on (heaven!!). Sadly we had to get going again to finish the walk and after following the still beautiful coastline we arrived in Porthmadog at the end of our journey
