Clyne Valley Trail

Highlight • Trail

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.
