Swansea Ramblers Walk


Walk to take place in Bath, November 2022

28th October 2022

Leader: Andrew Morgan




Andrew has been to Bath to check the route of a 3-mile walk Swansea Ramblers will do when we arrive by coach in November.   This is a lovely walk first along the riverside then follows the Kennet and Avon Canal to Sydney Gardens.   After the walk, people will be able to explore Bath before meeting up again to catch the coach back to Swansea   



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.
