As others up BW from Nantyrharn Farm up to South top first, then followed tracks to this top and trig.PeterD06/03/2024
Parked at Nantyrham. Combined with south top. Biting cold wind and rain on return. Good grassy tracks most of the way.Campbell Singer13/01/2023
Walked over from the southern top, which looked lower, by keeping a little to the right of the wet lands above Cwm Clydach. Wonderful 360 degree views. Descended SW to Nantyrharn.Rob Rees27/01/2022

Parked at 92153 27123, down the track and across the stepping stones. Up the track which became a bracken bash before leaving it anyway for more bracken then emerging onto grassland for the final run to Fforest Fach N.Top. Kept west to avoid the valley for the traverse to Fforest Fach then worked my way down and back to the start.clivevilla29/07/2019

follow on to Fforest Fach - sunny day so feet dried out on boggy bitsdicky01/11/2015
From verge on busy road on path to large stepping stones across a full stream. Stepped into the water to prevent slipping or hitting head, etc. Very unkempt sunken path with beast turds to a bracken field, low branches, etc and up hill to column. 12.35.arranc18/09/2015
