| Quite a pleasant hill. Open access to the reservoir compound from the ESE and from the NW ends of the hill. Coming from the ESE it is best to go to the left (south) of the house and covered reservoir by the east top. | Alan Moore | 26/01/2018 |
| Short walk into the Nature Reserve from the north - when you find the path... Trig on top of reservoir sports a 'Confined Spaces' warning sign at moment. | Aye Jimmy | 31/12/2017 |
| Quick bag from the car park to the east. Climbed fence to trig point. | Alunrees33 | 17/10/2017 |
| With Jenx and Bryher in between two very heavy cloudbursts, up the track from NW and easily climbed the gate to trig - use the handle as a step over... | nordicstar | 19/07/2017 |
| Extremely heavy rain stopped just long enough for us to rush to the top and back. | jenx | 19/07/2017 |
| P 88725 77634. Path to top. | chrisbien | 10/06/2017 |
| With Pete, en route from Warwick to Llandudno- 4th of day. Bad start- anxious drive on lanes S of Llysfaen, then through a hedge to gain access. We needed a 1/25K map- there is a perfectly easy track from Llysfaen which we followed back down and the roads N are wide and easy. Reservoir banking higher than natural ground but nasty looking fence deterred us from going onto it. | pwheeler | 10/09/2016 |
| With K. She fell face first into a patch of nettles and brambles and lay there helplessly with her feet high above her head. A sight to behold. | Ashley | 12/07/2016 |

| Continuation of walk from Craig y Forwyn. Took RoW west along quarry edge and down to farm. Then track to village and up onto common land - area is an open access nature reserve. Climbed low fence as recommended by slotting foot into gap for bolt and heaving myself over. Then dropped down to North Wales Path which I took into Old Corwen, returning by coastal path. Possible alternative natural high point 250m to the south-east. | Man of Kernow1 | 21/09/2013 |

| Got a lift up most of the way. Nice views. went on to Craig y Forwyn, but got a bit lost. Cant get to trig point due to big fence.Nasty estate nearby called `Peulwys` which is pronounced by locals incorrectly as `Pilas`. sad. | mattcymru | 20/08/2012 |
