From Rhydychen as gerrybowes- pleasant easy walk up silage field, gates, pastoral views | pwheeler | 14/05/2022 |
Easy parking by Rhydychen at SN 3429 1642 (area of land that sits in the SW corner of crossroads opposite some derelict farm buildings) - SW along road for about 80m to field gate - Over gate & up over sheep pasture to the high point next to fence/hedge. (S) | gerrybowes | 21/07/2021 |
Verge parking to NE. Quick up and down via the gates to the E, as others. My 1000th Tump logged on hill-bagging in 2021. | PGCE | 17/07/2021 |
Pleasant views over to the Gower coast, and Worms Head looks very much like an island right now. | Alex C | 13/07/2021 |
A circuit of the roads from the war memorial. Up the hill from the east. With B and R. | jenx | 13/09/2020 |
grass field from east, vertical length of pipe in hedge line | cjo | 22/08/2019 |
Up, or rather along, from gates at S on the lane. Get the idea that nobody's really bothered - they're all busy renovating Second Homes. | Eddie | 14/07/2019 |
From road to the east. Parked in a gateway as it only takes 10 minutes round trip. | clivevilla | 16/07/2018 |
Up field from east | vegibagger | 03/01/2018 |
Easy from north | Mark Sims | 01/06/2016 |
from gate east through another gate straight to flat top raining | underhill | 05/08/2015 |
No parking available on road to east so went up from the village. Bracken and brambles gave way to easy fields, with the summit hedge to crash through to gain the high point | Colin Crawford | 30/06/2015 |
Parked to south of farm. Good path at first but became boggy. | Campbell Singer | 31/01/2015 |
7/7 Easy climb up from road in north just one gate to climb than follow fields to top..nice easy finish to long day | Fergalh | 27/01/2015 |
Parked at field access gate SN 34323 16255. Hill summit is on SE side field boundary, as per OS 25k map. Typical roughish hill pasture. No livestock in the fields today. | jonglew | 30/08/2014 |
Thanks to Rob, easy walk through ponies from gate to N. | arranc | 28/07/2014 |
Jump a gate, desperate struggle through brambles, over fence and up field to metal post in hedgerow, dogs barking in distance. Better to seek forgiveness than ask permission. | Martin R | 26/07/2011 |
The horses were still there! I parked at the war memorial at the SW corner and tried to use the RoW from south end. Not much sign of it so a bit of a struggle up through the wooded area. | chriswatson | 08/11/2010 |
parked junction to SW. Walked back up road towards Llangynog to a track then old gate. Top seems on the far side of the triple barbed wire thick hedge. | destaylor | 28/10/2010 |
Sunny spring morning on my way to read TB test at Jones, South Treffgarne. Parking impossible on narrow road to east. | Dugswell2 | 20/03/2009 |
