 
 
The Gower Walking Festival 2008
was held from Saturday 7th of June until Sunday 22nd June this year, and as promised, was better than ever with 34 walks taking place over the two week period and also including the highly successful Gower Gallop, when over £800 was raised for the RNLI and South Wales Evening Post's Charity Stroll. The variety of walks from 1 to 25 miles included this year the opportunity to walk completely around the peninsula in 7 easy stages. 3 walkers completed the challenge and they were presented with framed certificates to commemorate the event. (See picture above) Good weather prevailed almost throughout the event and all but one of the planned walks took place, each being well supported. One walk unfortunately had to be cancelled when heavy rain in the walk area of the Brecon Beacons meant that there would have been too high a risk to safely carry out the walk.
It is hoped that the 2009 Brochure will be available by the end of January to enable you to plan your visit to this beautiful part of Wales. It will of course be also available to view or download on this web site early in the new year. In the meantime, this year's brochure will continue to be available to view to give you a taste of what we will be preparing for your visit next year. We look forward to seeing you.
