Circular route around Swansea West and Gower.
Passes the beaches of Caswell, Langland,ends up at a surfers paradise of Llangenith at Hillend Caravan Park.

A quite hilly return through Three crosses, alternative would be to stay on the flat penclawdd to gowerton road or adjacent route 4 path.

40 miles in duration all on public roads although most of the Gower roads are quiet.

Many variations can be made to this route. You can easily add Knelston, Rhossili and/or Port Eynon, Oxwich all worth seeing, esp Rhossili.

From Cilibion, you can head towards Reynoldston. This is quite a long steady climb but the top gives you probably the best views of the Gower in all directions.

Also, depending on where you start, the climb up from Caswell beach can be a bit beastly after a long ride.

Overall, cycling round the Gower is great and the roads are reasonably quiet.
