View of Swansea from Kilvey Hill

Kilvey Hill is exactly the same height as Rhossili Down, the highest point on Gower. The view over Swansea, Swansea Bay, the docks, Port Talbot and as far as Nash Point is stunning and unique. On the way we will explore the history of the Hill from Neolothic times to the industrial revolution. Bring a sandwich for a relaxed lunch while admiring the vista.
