We are Swansea Ramblers. Come with us and discover the pleasures of walking in the Swansea area and beyond. We look forward to seeing you on one of our walks.

N.B. This is a linear walk starting in Penclawdd and finishing in Gowerton.
The walk one-way to Gowerton is about 3.5 miles. Those wishing to return to Penclawdd could catch a 116 bus from Gowerton.
We will begin our walk along the Penclawdd Foreshore (with a small section that may be wet and muddy). We then join the Tarmacadam Active Travel Path eastward.
From here we cross the B4295 at the Rake and Riddle to join the inland section of the Wales Coast Path.
From the hills over which the coast path travels, we will have fine views above the Loughor Estuary and beyond.
We then continue east on an enclosed Bridleway until we reach Cefn Stylle Road. A short distance on the road brings us to an awkward stile.
Continuing through a field and woodland, the coast path emerges onto Brynymor Road where our walk finishes.
Terrain: Some ascent, some mud and a Bridleway with a rocky surface.
Stiles: There is one stile (awkward) along the way.
Toilets: There are toilets available in Penclawdd.
Social after walk:
Afterwards, we will go for refreshments to The Farmers Arms in Swansea Road, Waunarlwydd.
