Dylan Thomas Trail, Literary heritage trail in Ceredigion, Wales.

The Dylan Thomas Trail extends 24 miles from Llanon to New Quay through farmlands, coastal paths, and medieval castle grounds in western Wales.

The trail was inaugurated in 2003 by Aeronwy Thomas, marking locations where the celebrated poet lived and worked during World War II in Ceredigion.

Blue plaques and information boards throughout Lampeter, Aberaeron, and New Quay detail connections between local landscapes and Thomas's literary compositions.

Walkers can complete the route in 9 to 12 hours, with trail guides available for purchase at the Dylan Thomas Centre for £2.

The path passes near a submerged cemetery beneath the waves, which influenced Thomas's creation of the radio drama Under Milk Wood.
