Logged Descriptions (logged by 38 users)	By	Date of Ascent
Parked at the Gilfach Nature Reserve Welcome Gateway car park (by donation) to the SE just off the A470. Followed the Reserve's post marked Yr Wylorn trail opposite the parking (although it doesn't actually go to Yr Wylorn). Where the trail starts to descend follow animal tracks N across moorland along the eastern edge to Yr Wylorn top, crossing a bwf. From the top a clearer path descends to the ROW and across to Garreg Lwyd. Visited hp and knoll. Tried to bypass Yr Wylorn on the return to the W but this was much harder work. Easier to retrace steps or continue on ROW round to the E of Yr Wylorn, as others. Overcast, chilly breeze, limited views. Solo.	richard69	04/06/2024

Parked to south , up good FP with posts not marked on map and did not go to top, but got me up to 400m then followed fainter tracks to top. On to Garreg Lywd. Returned on good track to north.	PeterD	27/05/2023
Easy walking, no bogs.	Adrian	18/03/2023
Walked up from Gilfach and used a lovely path not on the OS map that runs alongside the boundary fence of the access land. Then past a holiday home and the PRW which bends around the north side of the hill. the cloud inversion in the Wye Valley gave stunning views.	Rob Rees	13/01/2022
From the nature reserve to the south up the steep path marked with posts then sheep paths to the summit.	clivevilla	10/11/2021
On the way to Garreg Lwyd from Nature Reserve car park. See Garreg Lwyd for full route.	JulieB	05/10/2021
From free Wildlife Trust carpark just off A470. Steeply up waymarked path. Where this starts dropping down followed sheep trods towards summit. Awkward barbed wire fence to negotiate.	KeithByTheC	05/10/2021
Up ROW from South round east side to col the SSE to summit.. Blue skies fluffy cumulus and a little 8-9mph breeze	vegibagger	14/10/2020
The 'hill walk' from the excellent Gilfach nature reserve passes close to the top - a nice, steep little walk.	nix_snilloc	17/08/2019
A revisit to Gilfach visitor centre where the otters can be seen. Nice short walk over the Marylin and this on the way back. Must go home tho!	nickywood1	02/12/2017
