I arrived at the car park just below the Neuadd reservoir grid ref so037170 at 10:30am after a night shift I sorted myself out and set out at 10:50.
As I walk along the track it was warm with a light breeze blowing now and again and this set the pattern for the day as far as the wind was concerned. I had decided to go around Cribyn and climb it from the Pen y Fan side. It is a steeper climb but shorter and it would fetch me back down to the track that I came along. Here are some pic`s I took along the way.
- More of the track with Cribyn to the left of the picture
- Looking down towards the upper Neuadd reservoir with very little water in it.
- Path leading around Cribyn and up Pen y Fan.
- Fan y Big from Cribyn.
- Pontsticill reservoir in the distance.
- Looking northeast.
A great afternoon in the Brecon Beacons.
