The tumulus with trig is the high point! From Black Mixen, along edge of forest and then by edge of fence. Over supposed high point in the heather on the way to the trig. Nice little hill. With Jill. | Dangerous Dave | 07/02/2024 |

Upper car park (400m start!) - Whimble - Bache Hill - Great Mixen - Great Rhos - returned past Black Mixen and down Ystol Bach Brook. | Mark Jackson | 27/10/2022 |
Climbed whimble before this from path on left of forest, best top of the day | chris.brockwell | 13/10/2022 |
Third top on a 15 mile walk from New Radnor to Kington. Headed straight along the edge of the forestry from Great Mixen, following a rather narrow and boggy path. Bache Hill is my favourite hill on this range, the views south are sublime and the Bronze Age barrows are really fine. Descent along the east ridge, as per each of my previous trips, then on to Four Stones. | thesweetcheat | 08/10/2022 |

Anti clockwise circuit to Great Rhos, back seized up increasingly and nearly couldn't get over ladder stile near summit. Grand day. | Nick Canute | 02/09/2022 |
From Black Mixen along track/path. Once on the summit area, follow W fence to ridge and use the track. Visited the trig also, which seems to be a picnic spot for the local birds of prey. Fantastic vistas from this isolated group of 3 simms. Solo | RoguePulsar | 15/08/2022 |

A very pleasant clockwise circuit of Great Rhos, Black Mixen and Bache Hill from New Radnor.Up Lane from Haine's Mill, round the three tops to finish down th Lane into the Centre of New Radnor. Good all th way except for a short stretch of dep heather from the gate at the end of the track before great Rhos. Path down through the woods near the end rather overgrown at this time of year but not a problem. | dickscroop | 23/09/2021 |
