Swansea Ramblers Walk


Waunarlwydd

The first evening walk of the year

25th April 2023

Leader: Peter Jones




Swansea Ramblers have a series of evening walks in the spring and summer to enjoy the longer days.   These walks are ideal for anybody who is stuck all day in an office and wants to get out in the fresh air after work.   Most of the walks are about 3-4 miles (about two hours).

If you would like to try a walk with us, just come along.

Peter took us over the countryside hidden behind the houses in Waunarlwydd.   We enjoyed views over the surrounding countryside then after the walk, had refreshments in The Farmers Arms.   



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.

But the rain this spring had turned this path into a stream

A steep ascent and the views opened up even more
