A scenic circuit from Rhosili, Gower
moderate
Distance 12 km
The narrow tidal promontory of Worms Head is one of Gower’s most iconic attractions. Continuing past the headland, this scenic circuit explores the limestone scenery of Gower’s south coast before heading for the Beacon on Rhosili Down. The views from the top are simply incredible. The full walk takes us along the ridge to Hillend, where we join the beach – regularly voted one of the best in the world – to return to Rhosili.
