What a wonderful 1st weekend we had – great walking weather, eight wonderful walks covering a total of nearly 55 miles around glorious Gower, 138 people & quite a few happy hounds taking part.
Check out some of the walk photos below 📸🤩
And, the fun is just starting! We’ve still got 6 more days to go. Don’t worry if you haven’t got your tickets yet – there’s still time. The full walks programme is here. Online bookings close 18 hours before the start of each walk.
