4/5. Parked at the viewpoint to the E and walked up the track to the other county hp and the trig point. Cloud closing in with a reducing view N. Solo | richard69 | 29/11/2023 |

Decided to do this hill properly and started from village of Rhigos at bottom. Walked up through the forest to Hairpins on A4061. Path across the first hairpin was fine, but the path over the second, bigger and steeper, soon disappeared and the steep slope was covered with deep and soft vegetation: hard, slow work!! once at the top, the mile of track to the summit was easy. The southern slopes of the hill have been made a Wind Farm, and this looks an easier option if convenient. I've now done all British Marilyns over 600m. | IanHHill | 13/09/2023 |

From A4061 along cycle route 47 on wide wind farm tracks from 922026. Trig point on left off minor track north of route 47. Uninspiring, considering it's a Sim, Marilyn and County High Point. | KeithByTheC | 06/10/2021 |
After the first kilometre or so the bridle way shown on map no longer exists but the track just to the north does. Follow this to a large stone marker (which looks rather like a trig point), turn left and after a short way trig point is on your right. Equally straightforward on the windfarm track to the south, turn right at a distinctive Y shaped marker. | dickscroop | 06/10/2021 |

3/6 Dewey day. From the picnic area at SN 922 020, along the forest road and then up forest rides as others to Mynydd Tynewydd. Then along forest/wind farm roads to SN 942 032 and along rough grassy track to Hirwaun Common. From there back to the main wind farm road to the A4061 at SN 922 027. Made the mistake of trying to follow FP diagonally over open area. A combination of huge tussocks, burnt heather and very wet underfoot made this section very unpleasant, until decent track along the escarpment edge met, then easy going along edge with short diversion to locate the Trig at the summit of Craig y Llyn. Returned to the car easily via wind farm road. 17km with 350m ascent in 4 hours. (S) | silveracorn_alan | 22/07/2020 |

Parked at the viewpoint carpark on A4061, followed the path adjacent to road and then upwards towards cliffs. Continued along stony track until I reached the second stone way marker (Thanks Jim.r) and then turned left to reach trig point. Pleasantly surprised to spend some time watching a Peregrine pair flying out from the cliff face on the way back down. | Gerry the Ranger | 05/07/2018 |

On a cycling trip through Wales, following NCR 47, so took the very slight detour to the trig point/summit. NCR 47 gate was illegally padlocked at GR SS 8505 9940. Had to lift bike over gate. | tsharp | 14/06/2018 |

Parked opposite the wind farm entrance, by the cycle track. Forgot the map, but Hill-bagging came to the rescue on my mobile. A nice path follows the outside of the forestry fence, above the bog, relatively undamaged by trail bikes except a couple of wet sections (I do hope the last ones there got horribly stuck, serves them right). This path joins the nice track heading along the edge of the hill with excellent views. The turn off to the summit and trig is obvious, marked by a fake standing stone. One of the better hills in the Valleys, of which, I am pleased to say, this is my last. | Gill | 23/02/2018 |
Parked in a forestry carpark and followed the forest tracks up. easy walk but was soaked by the end and a trig summit | jmistry86 | 20/01/2018 |

Continuation on from the Rhondda Cynon Taff summit, lots of incredibly bright green moss about! Maisie's 200th English / Welsh summit. | DanMaisieBex | 14/10/2017 |
From viewpoint car park at SN927031. Path follows road, and then skirts top of cliffs (wet in places), and joins a stony track through the wood. At the second stone way mark head into the woods to find the most unimpressive 600m 'peak' in Wales (trig point is behind a tree, on the edge of a clearing). Views from the edge of the forest are good, but much the same as from the car park. | jim.r | 28/09/2017 |
Standard route from the layby in rather damp, claggy weather. Very odd summit for a Simm - quite flat topped, surrounded by conifers and what looks like a small car park. Returned via the Rhonda top. With M and X. | Herbert Anchovy | 04/09/2017 |

Craig y Llyn from SN 92689 03092 | ronaldo333 | 04/06/2016 |
From the picnic site on the A4061. The construction of 63 wind turbines has taken over the cycle route to the top. The top itself appears to be in a security compound complete with automated scary message. The trig point is just outside. Glad we did it on a Sunday, probably very busy in the week. | Newton Maximus | 08/05/2016 |

Started from viewing point layby on A4061 (SN92657 03094) following Coed Morgannwg Way east turning south at marker stone near Carn Fach. Trig and summit approx 100m on west side of track, but almost totally obscured from track by temporary works depot. Back tracked to fire break before marker stone and returned to layby picking up bonus bag of Rhondda Cynon Taff (C), Craig y Llyn (boundary)on way back to layby | mntainman | 12/04/2016 |

First top on a Marilyn bagging day- straightforward route from top of pass car park via track | Cas-gwent | 15/03/2016 |
From A4061 at 923027 followed national cycle route 47 west, which is currently a wind farm construction road, no fun at all. After the trig pillar, which has no views, returned on the Sky line path that runs parallel along the escarpment and has marvelous views. Don't cross the bog on the right of way back to the parking area, but continue to the bend in the main road, which is much drier. | mindlessflogger | 13/03/2016 |

Straightforward from the top of the pass.But the track marked with diamonds from the road is hardly visible and extremely wet through the bog. The footpath is the better option. | jenx | 18/11/2015 |
With Jenx. Parked at the 923027 by the celebrated No Parking sign. The FP though across the moor is dreadfully overgrown and wetted out. Better to walk up the road to the trail at 922029and follow this to beginning of track at 916031. Followed all way to the right angle into forest and trig behind young spruce. | nordicstar | 18/11/2015 |

Spur of the moment decision to take in Craig y Llyn on the return from St Davids. Good decision. The car park on A4061 currently not in use, but we could still park on some waste ground further down. Easy walk to the summit where there are some wind turbines being constructed. Great views to the north. | callumorr | 27/05/2015 |

Plenty of parking options to east along A4061. We parked at entrance to the new wind farm site at SN921025. Kind chap at site security office let Jacqdaw use his loo. Lots of good paths and tracks to summit, although felling and replanting means even current OS map is out of date. Fantastic views to north of large number of major Beacon's peaks from viewpoint just north of trig. | Hillsidenick | 26/07/2013 |

13 mile walk from Cwmdare, bagging Mynydd Bwlfa trig then walking along edge to summit of Hirwaun Common, down to A4061, up to Craig-Y-Llyn summit, then walked back along Coed Morgannwg Way back to Cwmdare.

Didn't get the ascent quite right- parked 250 m N of pt482 (SN922025) near the summit of the A4061. In cloudy wet weather I hurried up the cycle route, a very good track used by trucks, so bailed out to a firebreak- soggy but direct. As the cloud lifted a bit I walked to the escarpment over which the views to glacial lakes were impressive.Here there was a good path near to the escarpment which I used to get back- much better than the way up. | pwheeler | 25/04/2012 |

Detour from Beacons Way to gain this county top. A bit of a detour but the mass of the hill dominates southern part of Brecon Beacons National Park. Trig point disappointing but ridge walk to and from good views north. | peter | 23/06/2009 |

Trig point, Route: Pontwalby - Cwm Gwrelych - Opencast - Llyn Fach - Craig Y Llyn. Path on OS no longer exists across opencast, very difficult terrain until Llyn Fach. Not recommended. | Chris Williams | 22/02/2009 |

Parked at SN 923030. Scenery looks better on map than on the ground! White trig (S2045)and small mast but no views 'cos of trees. Not only is it highest point in W. Glamorgan, a little to E on faint track is highest point in Mid Glamorgan too! | signyred | 18/07/2006 |

Stupidly wet day - we nearly drowned! If you're coming up from the nearest point on the A4061 as we did, it's easiest to use the cycle trail through the woods. The long distance trail slightly further north runs through a very boggy field. | wheresthepath | 02/10/2004 |

A County Top with a trig on top of it or two County Tops if you climb the hill from the East i.e West and Mid Glamorgan, or four County Tops if you include both the new and old County names! The trig sits in a forest clearing sharing its position with a small fenced in mast and two port-a-loos (must be planning for a small pop concert up here?). Peeling white paint with a missing plug. | Father Ted | 19/06/2004 |
