This document discusses Alan Walks Wales, a 1,000 mile journey along the Welsh Coast Path that was opened in May 2012, connecting existing paths into a single marked route that encircles Wales, including along Offa's Dyke. It provides tips on clothing, highlights seven wonders of Wales for each direction, and discusses the scenery, beaches, surprises, and sense of community experienced, as well as challenges with connectivity and relying on hospitality and friends for support when illness struck along the way.
