Swansea Ramblers Walk


Cefn Drum

2nd March 2013

Leader: Lynne Esson




Lynne led us from Pontardulais up onto Graig Fawr with splendid views down the Loughor Estuary.  Unseasonally hot sunny weather made us think summer was on the way instead of spring!  We went on to find the pulpit stone and had lunch at the trig point. We returned over Cefn Drum then it was back to The Fountain Inn for a laugh and some more socialising.   If you'd like to try a walk then do come along and find out what all this Swansea Walking in the great outdoors is all about.  It won't cost you anything to come along and see if walking is for you.  If you get the bug and want to walk or stroll regularly then you can also become a member.  Just ask us about the walks we do when you join us for a Swansea Walk.
