ポントスリウとティルコッドのおすすめツーリングルート

If it’s been even remotely damp, you NEED mudguards or ass-savers!

Clyne Valley Country Park is a 691-acre (280-hectare) area set around the Clyne River that runs into the sea at the Mumbles seafront between Lower Sketty and Blackpill. It is a marvellous green area that covers both sides of the valley in thick woodlands of oak, birch, and beech trees. There are signs of its intensive industrial history dotted within the park, but mainly it is now noted for its extensive network of walking, running, and cycling trails.

Rhossili Bay is the focal point of the Gower Peninsula. It is just such an iconic destination. In the immediate vicinity, you have views of the amazing rocky peninsula of Worms Head, the sweeping panoramic view across Rhossili Bay Beach, and the nearby ridge that forms Rhossili Down with its trig pointed summit. There is a National Trust car park here for parking, bars, and cafes. The path down to the beach is good but not accessible for wheelchairs, unfortunately. On the beach itself, there is the iconic wreck of the Norwegian barque Helvetia. The remains of the wreck at low tide are simply one of the most photographed locations on Gower, and its ribbed outline resembles something akin to a dinosaur ribcage poking its way out of the sand. On the far side of this glorious three-mile beach is Burry Holmes Island, but it is only accessible at low tide. This is equally so with nearby Worms Head, which is a great adventure but one that needs due care due to its rocky nature and tidal access. This iconic tidal penninsula is only available 2.5 hours either side of low tide, and the walk will take you a minimum of two hours. Ensure you are in good physical shape to do the journey and have checked the tide times before you depart. If in doubt or for further excellent information, see Chris Knight's webpage below. https://ohwhataknight.co.uk/blog/worms-head-hike-guide WARNING: Crossing to Worms Head has resulted in injuries and drowning fatalities in the past. If you have been caught out by the tide, do not attempt to swim ashore.

Good for novice cyclists

A great treat stop on the cycle path. Good coffee and amazing handmade pies!

Rhossili Beach stretches for miles, boasting golden sands and stunning vistas. Renowned for its dramatic cliffs and the iconic Worm's Head rock formation. It's a perfect spot to Grab an ice cream and rest your tired legs in the Atlantic Ocean.

Is this ridable by a road bike?

Rhossili Bay has topped more "best beach" polls than I can count. It is also home to one of the best surf spots in Wales. With 3 miles of sandy shore, it includes one of Gower’s most famous landmarks, Worms Head. The Look Out Cafe is a recommended cyclist-friendly little cafe with fabulous views of the Bay and the Rhosilli Downs from the courtyard.
