This needs to be on your bucket list 📌😍

Three miles of golden sand, dramatic cliffs and views towards Worm’s Head make Rhossili Bay one of the most spectacular places for a dog walk on the Gower Peninsula.

We’ve picked out a circular route that takes you up onto Rhossili Down, where a little extra effort rewards you with incredible views across the bay, before descending back towards the coast.

The route:

📍 Rhossili Bay, South Wales
🥾 Approx. 4 miles
⏰ Slightly over 2 hours
🟠 Moderate

Dog friendly details:

🐕 Dogs welcome on the beach all year round
🐑 Livestock possible
🦮 Keep dogs on leads where required (there will be signs)
⚠️ Steep sections and cliff edges
🥾 Uneven paths, steps and mud possible
☕️ Dog friendly food nearby
🅿️ National Trust parking
🚻 Public toilets available
🌻 @rhossili_sunflowers nearby during summer

A huge thank you to our Ambassadog @thenimblewhippet for exploring this one for us and sharing their INCREDIBLE photos and first-hand dog friendly tips 🤍😍

Save this one for your next dog walk in South Wales.

This walk is part of our UK’s 10 Most Scenic Dog Walks series, created in partnership with @petgevityuk. Come back tomorrow to discover another scenic dog walk that’s well worth the visit.
