Swansea Ramblers Walk


Ferryside Walk joint with Bridgend Ramblers

4th October 2009

Leader: Zetta Flew




Zetta Flew of Swansea Ramblers led a joint walk with Bridgend Ramblers from Ferryside along the estuary foreshore and over to General Picton's ruined Iscoed Mansion.



Swansea Ramblers offer a range of walks for most abilities.

Try an easy walk of 2-3 hours or our longer strenuous mountain walks for the experienced walker.

Maybe you'd like to explore walking for the first time with a friendly group of people?
- Come with Swansea Ramblers!

If you'd like to try a Swansea walk then do come along and find out what the great outdoors is all about.

It won't cost you anything to come along and see if walking is for you.
You'll be very welcome to join us for three free walks.

If you enjoy walking with us and want to come on even more of our walks, just become a member.

When you join us for a Swansea Walk, ask us about the other walks and social events we do.
