Caernarfon to Gyrn Goch
From Caernarfon Castle down the foreshore and old coast road towards the Llŷn, with long beach stretches and big mountain views.

Continuing down the Wales Coast Path, this leg starts on Aber Foreshore Road with views of Caernarfon Castle and the walled town, then heads down the foreshore looking down the Llŷn Peninsula.
Much of it is on country lanes, with a section on or beside what's left of the old coast road, and some breathtaking views. And my favourite thing, running on the beach. Fifteen and a half miles.
