In its agricultural hinterland green patchworks of lowland landscape are watered by rich and fertile valleys. Carmarthenshire's coast continues eastwards from the end of the Pembrokeshire Coast Path at Amroth.

Byrgwm Forest Walk, Brechfa - A moderately easy four and a half mile walk on forest tracks and paths, some of which are shared with mountain bike routes provided by the Forestry Commission. A stage of the Wales Rally GB takes place here in the autumn. The walk passes through both coniferous and deciduous woodland, with some fine ancient oaks along short sections of ancient track. It is at its best when bright sun filters through the trees to the woodland floor. The walk starts from the Byrgwm picnic place north of the B4310 east of Brechfa, and follows a forest road for a mile before branching off to follow a forest path. After two thirds of a mile it briefly rejoins the forest road, then bears off on a path to loop round and rejoin a forest track which goes on to join the route of a historic byway through the forest. North-west of Abernantyffin a quiet metalled lane branches left downhill to return to the county road. More information on local walks can be found at. Walk Carmarthenshire.
