Tawe Trekkers Newsletter - 19th September 2011

Saturday 24th September - Mynydd Margam

Please note that this is a change to the walk advertised in the programme. We will first head North through Margam Park before venturing into heavily forested areas beyond. The route then circles back along quiet tracks and paths towards Goytre and Brombil. The grand finale is spectacular views over the coastal plain and Severn Estuary from the hills overlooking Margam Steel Works. You'll also see Brombil reservoir which is an extremely peculiar shade of turquoise and a WW2 Radar station. Deer are a distinct possibility.

Distance: 12 miles

Difficulty: Moderate/Strenuous. This is quite a long walk but the climbs and descents are generally quite gentle and the surfaces are reasonably even. Maximum altitude only about 340 m.

Meeting point: Civic Centre (County Hall) East Car Park at 9.30. Contact Graham on 07770 434341if you wish to meet at the start point or if you have any queries.

Regular Pub Night - Thursday 22nd September
Meet from 8 pmm onwards at the Brunswick Pub in Sandfields.

That's all for this week!
