    Windy and cloudy day, nice walk, hard climbing in places. If you don’t know the Brecons make sure you take warm clothing as the wind can be bitter cold along the main ridge line.

    From the Neuadd parking, take the right path in the intersection right after the paviment stops. The path is then quite flat until another intersection. On the right, you will go up the Fan y Big, and then come back to...
