Swansea Ramblers Walk


Gowerton to Penclawdd

16th July 2016

Leader: Roger Brown




Roger led a walk on a wet day which started from Gowerton Library and passed through Shaw Community Woodland before following footpaths onto the golf course.  We then made our way to Blue Anchor and Penclawdd where we had lunch.  We walked back along the cycle path to Berthlwyd and followed the inland stretch of coast path back to Gowerton.  We visited the Welcome to Gower pub for refeshments to round off the day.



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.

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