Product Information

This walk takes you from the Mumbles to the lovely Caswell Bay on the south east of the Gower Peninsula. The route runs for a distance of just over 4 miles on a undulating coastal path, passing Langland Bay on the way.

Getting there: On foot from Rhossili car park, either on the coastal route outlined above (up to 40 minutes) or across fields (20-25 minutes). Langland always draws plenty of visitors in the spring and summer months – mainly to relax on the beach, at the cafes or takeaway, but also to surf. It’s a great area for birdwatching, and a few hardy photographers have been known to make the long trek out to the cast-iron lighthouse at Whiteford Point al low tide. We haven’t, but can testify that it’s a striking photographic subject.
