Gower National Landscape - dramatic cliffs, sweeping beaches and starry skies.

The Gower National Landscape, previously the UK's first Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, continues to enchant with its rugged limestone cliffs, golden beaches, rolling moorland and vibrant biodiversity. Designated in 1956, Gower remains at the forefront of conservation as part of the National Landscapes network, safeguarding tranquil coastal scenes, traditional farms, and tranquil commons.

Explore the celebrated Rhossili Bay and its iconic Worm?s Head, wander mysterious Neolithic sites on Cefn Bryn, or discover secluded coves like Three Cliffs Bay and Oxwich Bay. Inland, peaceful trails meander across heathland and farmland, offering birdwatching, wildflower viewing, and panoramic coastal views. At night, Gower's International Dark Sky Community status lights up the skies with stars - providing unforgettable stargazing.

Access well-maintained public footpaths - including the Wales Coast Path - and enjoy visitor information from Visit Wales or local Gower guides. Combine coastal walks with visits to Rhossili, Mumbles, or heritage sites throughout the peninsula. Experience Gower in all its natural splendour - by day, walk its sweeping shores and prehistoric landscapes; by night, marvel at its pristine skies.
