From car park, made way up tracks to within 30m or so of the summit mound. Also visited the nearby trig point & windmill ruin, a useful landmark when finding way to top. Earlier heavy rain helped to bring out the vast array of colours on display. An amazing place. | gerrybowes | 30/10/2022 |
Walk from carpark on very drizzly grey day. Took shelter in the windmill from the worst of the rain before pictures at trig point. | catie | 12/09/2022 |

Parked at the visitor centre car park to the west of the hill and had a good look round, a very interesting site. The light was good, late afternoon, and the colours very interesting. Best little hill today. | nickywood1 | 02/03/2022 |

From car park. | mad max | 24/10/2021 |
Wandered over from the CP. Summit next to some large stones which are higher but the remains of an old building. The large opencast area to SW plays tricks on your eyes! Only Carla and Felix summited. | RoguePulsar | 13/10/2021 |
Lots of colourful rocks and deep quarrys, went with whole family. | speedyclimber | 13/10/2021 |

8th hill of 9 on a car excursion from Pentraeth with Lesley, climbing Maes Maethlu, Penbryreglwys,Mynydd Garn then over to the Castellor car park on the edge of Cemaes, climbing Moel Llanlleiana, Dinas Gynfor and Graig Wen then Bryn Coch. We parked up at the car park and followed a circular route to the Windmill. Amazing colours. I spent quite a while exploring the bumps before completing the circuit. Onwards to Mynydd Eilian, my final Anglesey island tump! PARYS was my 2000th tump before Bryn Alar was demoted. | Dazingdale | 19/07/2019 |
