Rhossili Down is a long ridge on the western tip of the Gower Penninsula. It stretches from Worms Head to Burry Holmes Island. It is a marvellous bit of high ground but only goes up to a height of 193-metres. Despite its diminuitive size, the views from its trig pointed summit are magnificent. The views down, over Worms Head, are simply world-class.

Llanmadoc Hill has fine views across towards Rhossili Down and nearby Harding's Down. With a trig point, a cairn, and an orientation table, it has a nice broad summit, which has few access paths to the the top. At 186 metres high, it is also a UK-designated P100 hill with 105 metres of prominence.

Cefn Bryn at 188 metres is a UK designated ‘Hump,’ which is a hill with a 100 metres of prominence. The top is marked by a trig point with marvellous views down over Three Cliffs Bay.

Are you intending to do the magical coastal hike which takes you out onto the tip of the sleeping serpent that is Worms Head? If so it is essential to come here to the NCI hut for tidal & any other relevant information. Now it is important to outline that if you do intend to do this walk it is only accessible within a tidal window of 2.5 hours either side of low tide. It also involves crossing over some slippery, unstable and rocky terrain. Tackle this hike only if you are happy on such terrain and you are within the appropriate tidal schedule. I would also respectfully suggest that you do not do this hike/scramble solo. Ex-Welsh rugby international Chris Knight has an excellent video and additional information on his webpage on how to hike Worms Head: Video here: https://ohwhataknight.co.uk/blog/worms-head-hike-guide Tide information here: https://www.tidetime.org/europe/united-kingdom/swansea.htm

One of the most famous places in Wales. The viewpoint where you can look out at a tidal rocky causeway connected piece of land that is straight out of the film 'The land that time forgot.' Simply a stunning vista on any day of the week.

The summit of Llanmadoc Hill is only 186m high but it makes for a really good run out from Llanmadoc. The views are pretty special on a sky blue day. The summit is marked by an Ordnance Survey Trig Point.

View to Three Cliffs Bay, long descent to the west, shorter & steeper east.
