17Th Programme – Swansea Ramblers We Offer Short & Long Walks All Year Around and Welcome New Walkers to Try a Walk with U
17th Programme – Swansea Ramblers We offer short & long walks all year around and welcome new walkers to try a walk with us. 1 Front Cover Photograph: Table Mountain with view of Sugar Loaf v14 2 Swansea Ramblers’ membership benefits & events We have lots of walks and other events during the year so we thought you may like to see at a glance the sort of things you can do as a member of Swansea Ramblers: Programme of walks: We have long, medium & short walks to suit most tastes. The summer programme runs from April to September and the winter programme covers October to March. The programme is emailed & posted to members. Should you require an additional programme, this can be printed by going to our website. Evening walks: These are about 2-3 miles and we normally provide these in the summer. Monday Short walks: We also provide occasional 2-3 mile daytime walks as an introduction to walking, usually on a Monday. Saturday walks: We have a Saturday walk every week that is no more than 6 miles in length and these are a great way to begin exploring the countryside. Occasionally, in addition to the shorter walk, we may also provide a longer walk. Sunday walks: These alternate every other week between longer, harder walking for the more experienced walker and a medium walk which offers the next step up from the Saturday walks. Weekday walks: These take place on different days and can vary in length. Most are published in advance but we also have extra weekday walks at short notice. -

NLCA07 Conwy Valley - Page 1 of 9
National Landscape Character 31/03/2014 NLCA07 CONWY VALLEY Dyffryn Conwy – disgrifiad cryno Dyma ddyffryn afon lanwol hwyaf Cymru, sydd, i bob diben, yn ffin rhwng gogledd- orllewin a gogledd-ddwyrain y wlad. Y mae’n dilyn dyffryn rhewlifol, dwfn sy’n canlyn ffawt daearegol, ac y mae ganddi orlifdiroedd sylweddol ac aber helaeth. Ceir yn ei blaenau ymdeimlad cryf o gyfyngu gan dir uwch, yn enwedig llethrau coediog, serth Eryri yn y gorllewin, o ble mae sawl nant yn byrlymu i lawr ceunentydd. Erbyn ei rhan ganol, fodd bynnag, mae’n ymddolennu’n dawel heibio i ddolydd gleision, gan gynnwys ystâd enwog Bodnant, sydd a’i gerddi’n denu ymwelwyr lawer. Mae ei haber yn wahanol eto, yn brysur â chychod, gyda thref hanesyddol Conwy a’i chastell trawiadol Eingl-normanaidd (Safle treftadaeth y Byd) yn y gorllewin, a thref fwy cyfoes Deganwy yn y dwyrain. Er yn cynnwys trefi Conwy a Llanrwst, a sawl pentref mawr a mân, cymeriad gwledig iawn sydd i’r fro hon. Mae’r gwrychoedd trwchus y dolydd gleision a chefndir trawiadol y mynyddoedd yn cyfuno yn ddelwedd gymharol ddiddos, ddarluniadwy. © Crown copyright and database rights 2013 Ordnance Survey 100019741 www.naturalresources .wales NLCA07 Conwy Valley - Page 1 of 9 Summary description This is the valley of Wales’ longest tidal river, whose valley effectively forms the border between the north-east and the north-west of Wales. It follows a deep, fault-guided, glacial valley and contains significant flood plain and estuary areas. The upper (southern-most) section has a strong sense of containment by rising land, especially from the steep wooded slopes of Snowdonia to the west, from which a number of small rivers issue down tumbling gorges. -
