Swansea Ramblers Walk


25th Annual Bethlehem Walk

19th December 2009

Leader: John Fry




This was the 25th year that John Fry has led an annual walk around the Bethlehem area.  We have done the walks in all weathers and enjoyed a meal at the pub in Trapp, singing carols afterwards.  We presented John with an album of photographs taken on walks over the years at Bethlehem.



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.
