NEXT WALK - Port Eynon to Rhossili - Sunday, March 17th

Due to lack of numbers, we've moved this walk to March 17th. We hope you can make it this time, it's really pretty! Please make sure you turn up to signup and put your name down if you want to come. This walk takes in some of the most scenic parts of the Gower. A coastal hike, it passes Culver Hole, caves and the beaches of Fall Bay and Mewslade before finishing in Rhossili. If the weather is right, then the sunset from Rhossili Beach or Worm's Head is spectacular. See below for some previous photos of this route.
