The Pembrokeshire coastal path has seen a big rise in walkers following the relaxation of the coronavirus lockdown THE number of walkers on Pembrokeshire’s coast path almost doubled in August and September compared to last year. After sections were closed during lockdown the National Park reopened the coast path in June with numbers of walkers increasing by almost 20,000 in August and September compared to 2019 which “broke all records,” public rights of way officer Meurig Nicholas said. He, and Theresa Nolan, national trail and Wales coast path officer, presented a report about the park’s paths and management of them during the pandemic and in the future to the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park Authority operational review committee.
