Tour the Gower Peninsula with a self-guided walking holiday along the Gower Coast Path. As the first Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty to be designated in Britain, the limestone Gower Peninsula boasts a wonderfully unspoilt coastline filled with grassy saltmarshes, golden sandy beaches and rugged cliffs dotted with headlands and coves.
The scenery is magnificent, the villages along the way are charming and welcoming, and the bustling city of Swansea acts as a fantastic finishing point for this section of the Wales Coast Path.
The terrain along the Gower Coast Path is diverse and changeable, dotted with a number of steep ascents when climbing the cliffs and sandy, marshy landscapes that could become challenging depending on the weather; however the many wonderful sights along the way serve as their own satisfying reward.
Looking to complete the full Wales Coast Path? This itinerary links up perfectly with the Carmarthenshire Coast Path to the west and the South Wales Coast Path to the east.
Visiting the National Wetland Centre and enjoying the pretty plant life that attracts various birds all year round.
Taking in the far-reaching views from the headlands of Whiteford Point and Port Eynon Point.
Enjoying the changing landscapes from rugged cliffs to untouched beaches and soft sand dunes.

“Spectacular scenery – great 'tempo' - my daughter and I thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. Wales is a hidden jewel (for Americans)... I would recommend this without reservation. My second booking with Contours - I have booked with competitors. I look for value and support - so, I will strongly consider Contours again. You were the only agency (that I found) that gave me what I wanted for this holiday.”Mr Arey, USA
