Pen Globo

The walk up Pen Globo is straightforward enough - it's the kind of peak that rewards you without demanding too much in return. You're looking at a modest hill near Fishguard in Pembrokeshire, the sort of place locals know and visitors tend to miss. The summit gives you proper views across the coastline and inland towards the Preseli Hills, which is exactly what you want from a Welsh peak walk.

It takes maybe 45 minutes to get up there and back down again, depending on your pace and how long you linger at the top. The terrain is manageable for families with older kids and anyone who enjoys a gentle ramble. From up there you can see why this corner of Pembrokeshire matters - the sweep of the coastline makes sense, and on a clear day it's genuinely worth the effort.

If you're based at one of the nearby caravan parks - Fishguard Holiday Park or Tregroes are your closest options - this slot into a morning nicely before heading down to explore the Fishguard clifftops or further towards Newgale Beach. It's not a destination in itself, but it's a solid addition to a Pembrokeshire break if you want to stretch your legs and get some height without anything technical.

Go when the weather's decent. There's no point trudging up in driving rain to see nothing but mist. Bring proper shoes though - it can get muddy.
