From King's Hostel on a round of 5 hills, this the first, on to its neighbour, Pared y Cefn-hir. | jonglew | 15/10/2022 |
Cairn to the east also visited | Alan Caine | 15/10/2022 |

Parked at lakeside car park. Very enjoyable circuit of 5 summits: Pared y Cefn-hir, Bryn Brith, Cefn yr Owen, Bryn y Greggeren and Pen Llynnau Creggeren. | PGCE | 06/02/2021 |
ascended Pared y cefyn first then dropped off ridge at gully crossing boggy area picking up faint path to ascend summit through deep heather,probably better to return same way i attempted vally between both peaks not so easy | johnowen | 22/07/2020 |
Should definitely still be paired hump! Much more vegetated than its neighbour. Totally soaked through by return to car. With B and R. | jenx | 09/03/2020 |
Pared y Cefn Hir and Bryn Brith from the obvious car park for the lake. It was misty and became rainy so I did not know what I was taking on. I still do not really but both were steep and involved hands - at least they did the way I went but I could not really see to choose a route. | clivevilla | 18/08/2018 |
Hill no.2 on RHW's Welsh tump completion walk. | Gill | 18/02/2018 |
Hill #2 on RHW's completion walk - we even managed to uncover an OS bolt on the summit. | DanMaisieBex | 18/02/2018 |
Direct ascent from SE over heather to small cairn. Bonus buried block with bolt under cairn on south top, similar height. Sunny and clear. Part of RHW final Welsh Tump completion walk, summit 2 | Denise | 18/02/2018 |
Pared and Brith revisited prior to my last 2 Welsh Mainland tumps. Bonus OS bolt found under cairn on slightly lower W summit | RHW | 18/02/2018 |
With the RHW Wtc party. Having just joined the TUK site, seeing the bolt was very exciting. Would never have found it on my own. | ngthack | 18/02/2018 |
Through heather from Pared y Cefn Hir NW Top. Nice summit and also an OS burried block/bolt on its neighbouring SW Top | RichardM | 18/02/2018 |
With RHW party | Dave Geere | 18/02/2018 |
Out and back from Pared y Cefn-hir along the granny path through the heather. | Eddie | 12/01/2018 |
3/4 (Foel Cae'rberllan/Pared y Cefn Hir/Bryn Brith/Craig y Castell) | Fergalh | 17/09/2017 |
With Bev, tough slog through heather. | simon and co | 10/06/2016 |
Kings to Morfa Mawddach. 2nd visit. | Smudge | 22/03/2015 |
A NICE LITTLE ONE IF YOU LIKE HEATHER :-( | heavyhorses | 24/08/2013 |
From south waste of time due to walls and fences. Go via Pared and head west. | dicky | 24/02/2013 |
petey | 02/10/2011 | |
From car park. Easy to get the wrong ridge. Summit no paths and lots of heather. | destaylor | 17/03/2011 |
A rough and rocky area with Bryn Brith and Pared y Cefn hir vying for supremacy. The latter is a stunning hill from Llynnau Cregennan car park. | chriswatson | 06/11/2010 |
From car park by Llynnau Cregennen. | Wheelsy | 04/08/2009 |
from P y C. Along ridge on WDP to peak at east end. | arranc | 13/07/2001 |
A beautiful 'Matterhorn shape' and lake. Ran uphill (KIMM training) working hard, nice circuit along ridge linking Pared y Cefn (unaware of its future bagging status at time) and onto the then sub-Marilyn of Bryn Birth. Back to car park below cliffs. | Chris Pearson | 25/09/1999 |
Date unknown. 1st ascent 1970s, date not recorded. Nice summit, lovely view, outclassed by the Pared. from car pk to SW | RHW | 01/01/1990 |
From Kings YH to Barmouth. 2007? Also included the bumps of Pared y Cefn hir - thank goodness! | summitsup | 01/01/1950 |
