Swansea Ramblers


West Cross, Oystermouth Castle
and the promenade

A 3-mile easy walk

20th March 2025

Leaders: Chris Roberts and Ruth Stephens




Swansea Ramblers met in West Cross and walked the back roads to Norton and into the castle grounds.

It was a lovely sunny day on the first day of spring.

After a short stop we made our way through some quiet streets in Oystermouth then down onto the promenade.

The new section of promenade was open so we walked in the direction of the city until we reached Ripples.

There we had coffee and enjoyed an Ice-cream before the short walk back to the start.   



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.
