Overview

Starting at the car park, we head up the path passing the remains of the Roman Villa dating back to the 3rd century and up the grassy bank towards Marine Drive.

This is a circular walk via Porthkerry Country Park passing Marco's cafe and then on towards Barry Castle, passed the Gorsedd Stones onto Romilly Park.

We pass Marine Lake to our starting point.
