We are Swansea Ramblers. Come with us and discover the pleasures of walking in the Swansea area and beyond. We look forward to seeing you on one of our walks.

Enjoy a walk through Crynant Forest.
There will be a steep, rough ascent/descent at the start/finish but we’ll have great views of the Black Mountain, walking mostly on forestry tracks.
The walk includes a short introduction to some lovable bloodhounds!
