Starting point




Swansea
SA2 8PR

Discover one of the joys of Swansea Bay - a bike ride along the seafront path for an ice cream on Mumbles Pier. The route couldn't be much simpler: after leaving the campus and crossing Mumbles Road we then follow the cycle path around the curve of the bay past Blackpill and all the way to Mumbles Pier.

We'll have time for an ice cream (or coffee if it's chilly!) and take in the view before returning to campus.

The whole route is traffic free (although there are a few road crossings), surfaced and completely flat, so suitable for all types of bike.

All you need is a roadworthy bike (check tyres and brakes before setting off), a helmet and some money for refreshments.

Don't have your own bike? Because we will be starting and finishing at a Santander Bikes station, there is always the option to hire a bike for the trip, turn up 15 minutes early and we can help show you how.
