The rules around Llanelli
In Wales you may walk on public rights of way and on the open access land Natural Resources Wales publishes. We hold both for Carmarthenshire, and a walk that leaves them is refused before you ever see it.
We have read the dog orders of every council in Carmarthenshire, and a walk here tells you when it crosses a place an order names.
We checked Carmarthenshire for military live-firing ground and hold 4 areas of it: Sennybridge Training Area, MOD Pendine, Pembrey Sands Air Weapons Range and MOD Aberporth. A walk is checked against them before we show it.
