Newsletter - Gower Weekend with TBR!






Hi all,

This weekend the Tiger Bay Ramblers are coming down to Swansea for a weekend of walking (amongst other things), and guess who's joining them? That's right - us! Carys from TBR will lead the walks on Saturday and Sunday, and Doug from TT will lead the walk on the Monday. If you want to go the whole hog and camp with the TBRs, then give Carys a call on 07812610260.

There's walking everyday, and here's the lowdown from Carys for Saturday and Sunday's walks.





Saturday 26 May - Walk to Caswell from Swansea

Start Point - Blackpill Carpark @ 1030

About 8 miles mostly along the curve of Swansea Bay and the cliff path past Mumbles.


Sunday 27 May - Penmaen and Parkmill

Start Point - Penmaen Carpark @ 1000

9.30am Drive to Penmaen car park (we’ll need/want to car share as much as possible, so can I have some volunteers please?). Walk is about 9 miles, including cliff paths, beach, fields and a hill. Walking boots are recommended as we've had lots of rain recently.

Find a pub/restaurant for dinner – probably Mumbles or Swansea city centre. TTers are welcome to join in on the evening feast!

...and here's the TT-led walk:





Monday 28 May - Clyne Common and Valley

Start Point for TT's: Blackpill Carpark@ 1000, (GR619908) walk the mile or so up the hill and meet the TBRs at their campsite at about 1030.

The walk is 5.5 miles long, heads up through woodlands and the open expanses of Clyne Common for excellent views over Gower. We then pass through upper Killay and return down the Clyne Valley path. Call Doug on 07766652837 for more details.

Give Doug or Carys a call for more details. Hope that we have a good show of TTers on the walks, especially Monday's!

Cheers,

Doug
