Fantastic walk in the Brecon Beacons. We did it clockwise, great views, would thoroughly recommend

Some nice shots there,id second your recommendation,thats the route to do Pen y fan,fan y big etc its generally less crowded than heading up from the storey arms centre side,although arrive handy to avoid parking chaos.did that same route last year in glorious sunshine in March.

Thanks.

We parked in the car park on the left which wasn't too busy, after trying to park at the road end and being unable to.
You're right about it being a nice quiet route until you see the masses coming up from the storey arms on the left. We drove along that road by the storey arms on the bank holiday monday on our way home, traffic and parking chaos, so definitely worth seeking out that starting point!

Nice route that one, done it a few times, I've yet to do it the other way round though (anti-clockwise).
Looks like you had good weather.

At least one of these peaks is a Countdown Conundrum, cause I'm pretty sure I can make a 6 letter word out of CRIBYN.
