Picture
There is a car park on the A4061 as it begins it zigzag descent towards Hirwaun where people stop mostly to take pictures of the view north. Which today was a view across a sea of cloud almost level with the top of the plateau. It is a short walk west from here along the main road - there is a path off to the side so one can avoid walking on it - to where it bends south. Here a path continues west towards the hill. For about half a km. it is quite unpleasant thanks to the action of off road motorbikes: deep grooves separated by narrow ridges, either of which are uncomfortable underfoot. When it reaches the woods and starts to climb it gets much less unpleasant. The bikes come this  way too but the ground underfoot is rocky now and harder to damage. A track is followed west along the top ofthe woods until one seems just to have passed its highhest point at which point there is a branch track off left a short way along which is the easy to find trig point. As I walked back the highest of the Brecom Beacons were just sticking their tops out of the cloud base.
