Gower Walk with the Tiger Bay Ramblers - Sun 21st June

Our friends from the Big Apple (Cardiff) will be leading a walk from Oxwich on Sunday 21st June, and while they're in the Wild West (of Wales) they'll be inviting the local cowboys (that'll be us!), on their little adventure. Carys from TBR has sent us some details:

TT Meeting time & place: 10.00am, County Hall car park, Swansea

Start of Walk: 10.30am Oxwich Bay car park. (£3.50 per car for parking)

Difficulty: Moderate 8 miles

Starting from Oxwich, we will head up through fields which may be muddy so good boots are advisable. We will (hopefully) get good views of Oxwich bay, Rhossili Downs, and the surrounding area. We will then descend and be able to see 3 Cliffs Bay, Tor Bay the length of Oxwich Bay. The path then gets narrow and steep in places, so we will take our time then stop off at Nicholston Farm for ice creams, snacks, etc. Following that we will head through the sand dunes and onto Oxwich Bay, where we can paddle or walk along the sand along the length of the beach and back to the car park.

Walk Leader: Carys 07812 610260 (will be at the TT meeting place)

Before I go, just wanted to say a big thanks to Tom for organising a superb day out with the boat trip to Ilfracombe and a lovely walk along the Devon coast. The day went really well thanks to the work that Tom put in to make it all possible, and all who went had an excellent time!


Cheers,


Doug
