    Decent hike with 3 main peaks with constant descent and ascent straight after. Not a very challenging hike overall, depending on where you start it fromand how long you would like to make it. Up at the top it was very foggy, and super super widy. Some drops are very sharp so stay away from the ridge edges during windy conditions. Amazing view overall.

    Breath-taking views from the top! Not a long walk from Pen y Fan, but the circular from the north car park to Pen y fan and back via Cribyn is very long, but worth the stunning views! It's hard to find the car park when walking down from Cribyn as there are no signs. It's not for people scared of heights as there is a sheer drop on the path coming from the North, which is also very steep.

    Beautiful scenery 😍 a bit steep to climb but it's worth it.

    Iconic Cribyn! An iconic peak in the Beacons central range. Nice to do it in addition to Pen Y Fan and Corn Du. Stunning view point, bit of a climb to get there but well worth the vistas. Enjoy!

    The next summit along from Pen Y Fan. If you are coming from Pen Y Fan, the path is very steep, both up and down. A good pair of walking boots are advised. It is also very windy. Other than that, it's fairly close to Pen Y Fan so another summit to bag whilst you are hiking in the Brecon Beacons.

    Great walk & amazing views. Do not miss when going up/down Pen y Fan.

    forgot to mark last two hills of brecon that actually was up and down further. But the landscape was quite impressive. worth to visit esp for sunny day.

    Did this as the first climb coming from Brecon and compared to the others this one is the steepest. Other than that the weather was Welsh so couldn't see the black mountains but definitely worth every step anyway.

    Beautiful scenery. Lovely place to spot for a bite to eat or drink if not 15mph winds or sleet! Lol
