From the parking area on the A481/B4567 junction.Up track past Rhiw Rhwstyn to summit, down via Pen-y-waun and Ynilwyn. 4.9 miles out 2hrs 20. Nice hill with green grassy paths.JulieB03/01/2024
From NNW parking on minor road. Up past Neuadd Fach and followed track uphill. Good path to top. Despite recent rain good underfoot. Went from trig to tumulus and then onto the Wylfre tops and Lan-fraith Hill before visiting the North top on way back.18.5km in 4hrs 20 mins.PeterD17/11/2023
I parked in the layby at the junction of the A481 and the B4567. Lovely peaceful walk on to the plateau. It was a sunny day with no wind and it felt warm for November. Visited the trig point and the tumulus. Between the two I cooled my legs in the small tarn. It was a beautiful spot with great views. Only saw one other person and for the most part had the place to myself apart from the Ponies. This has to be one of my favourite hills. Time taken 2 hours 20 minutes including stops for 5.29 miles and 1089 feet of ascent.isabelle11/11/2023

Same parking and route as Mark Jackson below, apart from initial ascent via Pen y waun and Carneddau ascent via Pantgwin. Very pleasant and enjoyable day with good weather. Picked bilberries for later on Aberedw Hill. With Gillianrichard6909/08/2023
Just after turn off for the minor road leading to Tremaen there is a reasonably sized area to park a few cars on the left. I parked her and walked along the road to the gate on the right for Neuadd Fach. The map shows a path here although there is no footpath sign. I went up through here and it is easy to access the hill. Plenty of tracks leading to the summit. Several ponies about. On the way back there is a footpath sign before the path by Neuadd Fach. I spoke to the resident there who was very friendly and he confirmed that this is the correct right of way. Had a Spitfire fly over atlow level whilst up on the hill.KevPalmer07/08/2023

Ran / up down via Rhiw Rhwstyn. Nice autumn day.davechaffey07/09/2022
With Lesley. From the south. Path doesnt resemble route on map so in view of drizzle didn't bother trying to find the alternate path back down which contours southern slopes.Nick Canute22/08/2022

Circular hike from small layby leading to Tremain off the A481. Millenium Stone on a barrow and a trig point on the summit. Parking at the layby was tight as it can only accommodate two vehicles at a push.manilena27/08/2021

From the A481, up the road and then steep track to Rhiw Rhwstyn, where the vista opens up to sheep grazed bracken and grass plateau. Lovely walking on grass paths to Aberedw Hill then the two nearby Tumuli. Took the path northwards to bag the North Top before heading back down to the A481.summitter17/09/2020

From 088486 to the South. Up the farm track to the West, sharp right at the farm and the track takes you right up on to the plateau. Just 400m to the trig.NormanW03/10/2019
From the south starting below Cefnhinog per Gill and others. The path is mostly OK. There is a gate at 082499 just below the corner of the BWF, continue up to the corner and onto a nice path that leads up to the pond, from where the trig and several ponies were visible.Topographer5708/09/2019
