Walk Description
This walk visits a prehistoric burial chamber and returns over Cefn Bryn with views of Three Cliffs Bay.
Head towards the visitor centre then turn left to cross the footbridge.
Ascend the road to eventually enter Park Wood on the right. This area contains a burial chamber, cave and lime kiln.
Continue along the path and turn left at a junction.
Ascend the long track, eventually leaving the woods through a gate.
Turn right and follow the track at the base of Cefn Bryn.
Just after Little Walterston turn uphill on a grassy path to the top of Cefn Bryn where you connect with the main spine path near a Gower Way Stone.
On a winter's day you might find it is rather windy! (To avoid this section you could have earlier turned left out of the wood and followed the track to another Gower Way stone).
On top of Cefn Bryn turn left along the ridge to the next outcrop of rock.
Before descending, turn right to the Prince Charles inaugural stone. Take in the view then descend the main path to the gravel track.
Another Gower Way stone comes into view by some telegraph poles (this is the stone to watch for if you earlier opted not to climb Cefn Bryn).
Follow the direction of the telegraph poles towards a footpath near the forest wall and go right.
Bear left at the fork to keep close to the wall until you descend to a footpath sign near a house.
Turn right and follow the track through the car park and descend to the main road. Cross with care to the minor road opposite.
After a short distance follow the left fork to North Hills Farm where the footpath descends the lane to Parkmill. Take care crossing the main road and follow the road opposite back to the start.
Ramblers Cymru and Swansea Ramblers provide these routes but accept no responsibility for those walking them.
