Starting point




Swansea
SA2 8PR

Starting from the Santander Bikes stand at Fulton House, we will leave the campus along the cycle way towards Sketty Lane before crossing Mumbles Road to the seafront path. At Blackpill we will recross the road to the beautiful Clyne Valley path, with a very gentle 3 mile climb through the woods to Dunvant before descending to Gowerton. We will then continue along NCN route 4 on quiet residential roads and paths for another half mile to the end point of CK’s supermarket – an easy point to connect to car parking and Gowerton railway station.

People then have the option of continuing home if they live in the area, or returning back to Singleton along the same route.

This is a suitable ride for first timers - we never leave anyone behind. All you need is a roadworthy bike (check the brakes and that tyres are pumped up) and a helmet. We will carry out a brief check before starting, but advise you to carry this out in advance (we will not be able to make repairs).
