The route starts by following a path through a wooded valley to the small chapel at Haroldston West.

Joining the Wales Coast path the walk heads south along scenic section of coastline following the cliff tops. As your near Broad Haven, you pass Den's Door a natural arch and the Sleek Stone.

The walk starts from the Broad Haven Beach car park at the southern end of the promenade (grid ref. SM861136). After parking walk north along the promenade with the sea to your left. When the 'main' road bends right continue ahead past a row of benches and take the first signed footpath on the right between metal barriers.
