Swansea Ramblers Walk


Mumbles Way 1

25th May 2013

Leader: Andrew Morgan & Zetta Flew




Swansea Walks provide everyone with the opportunity to enjoy the countryside and our short Saturday walks programme goes from strength to strength with lots of new people finding out the fun to be had walking and socialising as we went along.

Today we walked part of the Mumbles Way and enjoyed the floral displays of Rhododendrons in Clyne Gardens.  Ancient woodland in Clyne Country Park provided us with a different area to walk and we then went to the Woodman for coffee and other beverages after the walk.



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.
