Swansea Ramblers


Swansea Parks

A 4-mile Thursday evening walk

16th May 2024

Leader: Lucy Davies




Swansea Ramblers enjoyed another gentle evening walk that took us around some of the parks in central Swansea.

We braved the forecast to have a mostly dry walk interspersed with light rain showers.   We visited Cwmdonkin, Brynmill, Singleton and Victoria.

Afterwards we had a get-together in The Bay View Hotel.   



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.
