Walking the Gower Peninsula, Wales
2025 DATES LIVE!
The Gower Peninsula is regarded as one of the most beautiful hiking destinations in the UK. Known for its sparkling and rugged coastline, wild moors and dramatic cliffs, our two day hiking day journey consists of two coastal walks ( 2 x 12.5 miles) encapsulating the most beautiful and wildest regions of the Gower Peninsula. When linked together you will have completed the most beautiful walking route around the Gower Peninsula.
During this weekend journey, stay with your team in a private and secluded bunkhouse set amongst the pine forests on the isolated northern tip of the Peninsula. What makes this experience truly unique is the quiet self catering accommodation is a stones throw from the northern forest beaches and will be our HQ for the entire weekend. We have it all to ourselves. Each day walk will be launched from the bunkhouse, returning in the evening for cooked meals around the fire or pub meal. The weekend, routes and accommodation are exclusive to Walk Wild. Places are limited to 10 people per trip. Dogs allowed. 5 parking spaces available on site.
