Outer Head Summit, Gower National Landscape

If you venture this far, I recommend setting off around 2.5 hours before low tide. It is on average a 2-hour hike to this point from the Rhossili car park. It is a bit of a scramble/rock climb to the top of the land which rises steadily to the furthest section of the island, Outer Head. The path starts off on the south shore then cuts northwards, ending with a short climb up a slanted cliff, to the grassy summit right at the western tip, from where the views extend across the Bristol Channel out towards the Atlantic. On a clear day you can see Lundy Island and the hills of Exmoor Devon as well as Pembrokeshire coastline. Outer Head is out-of-bounds between March and September in order to protect nesting birds, including guillemots, kittiwakes and herring gulls.
