Barafundle Bay & Stackpole Estate

This stunning 6-mile (9.6km) circular walk encompasses the very best of the Stackpole Estate in the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park. The route is famous for its incredible diversity, seamlessly blending pristine coastline with lush, hidden freshwater habitats. From the tiny harbor at Stackpole Quay, the path climbs the limestone cliffs before dropping down steep steps onto the flawless, pine-backed golden sands of Barafundle Bay (often voted Britain’s best beach). The route then continues along the sheer cliffs of Stackpole Head to the vast dunes of Broad Haven South. The return leg cuts inland, trading the ocean for the tranquil, lily-choked expanse of the Bosherston Lily Ponds—a series of flooded valleys teeming with otters and dragonflies.

The Three Capes Track is a 48km point-to-point trekking route within Tasman National Park, Tasmania. Starting at the Port Arthur Historic Site with a marine transfer across the bay to Denmans Cove, the route traverses the high sea cliffs of the Tasman Peninsula. The track is highly engineered, featuring wide gravel paths and boardwalks that provide safe access to vertical dolerite columns reaching 300 meters above the Southern Ocean. Management is handled by the Tasmania Parks & Wildlife Service, with a regulated north-to-south flow. The route transitions through diverse environments including coastal heathland, dry sclerophyll forest, and temperate rainforest.
