Swansea Ramblers Walk


A stroll around the Marina

An easy, 3-mile (2-hour) Friday walk

18th April 2024

Leaders: Chris Roberts and Ruth Stephens




Swansea Ramblers had another of their easier, short walks which allow people with mobility issues to enjoy a walk.

We walked over the Sail Bridge and back over the Trafalgar Bridge as we went aound the Marina.

We walked west on the Promenade then we turned east to pass by the Civic Centre.   We walked through Amy Dillwyn Park then back to the Marina.

After our short walk, we enjoyed coffee and cake in Sainsbury's Cafe.

If you'd like to try walking, why not watch out for these occasional short walks?   



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!
