Mumbles Head to Mumbles Hill

Distances 3 miles/5km
Time 2 to 3 hours

An easy if overcrowded walk along the sea front to begin with. Then there is a short steep climb up to the top of inner Mumbles Head. This is followed by a slightly longer climb to get up to the top of the Mumbles Hill. - everywhere with a splendid all around view over Swansea Bay, the Bristol Channel and down the Gower Coast. The last part of the walk entails a meander around houses and a couple of woodland stretches before Oystermouth Castle followed by another brief woodland interlude before returning to the bayside path.
