Overview

Join Jane for a walk that will take us along the historic coast of Llanelli where the docks and industry have been regenerated into a place to live and visit.

We’ll walk around the lake of Sandy Park where once the steelworks provided employment for the town.  It is now a pleasant stroll to see the wildfowl on the water.

We will be able to admire views across the Loughor Estuary to North Gower and Whiteford Lighthouse.

Social after walk

Afterwards we will go for refreshments to the Sandpiper at Sandy Park.
