Parked at junction to south and followed RiW north uphill, then cross sheep pasture via gate to rock outcrop at HP. Also cairn. Lovely sea and rolling hill views. Great hill. | Denise | 17/11/2023 |
From the S, grassy track all the way, field gate into summit field of sheep grazed pasture. High point shallow ridge has 2 rock outcrops of very similar height, the NE one having a cairn. | RichardM | 17/11/2023 |
From E of summit with Rufus. Parked at (viewed on OS 50k map) road junction directly E on hard standing next to gate and cattle grid leading to Pen y Gaer Uchaf. Small circular walk over hill fort, loads of huge parasol mushrooms, some very low and young gorse that the dog was not impressed with. Cool spot, will return with family. | jacobrichmond | 02/10/2023 |
