Background

Visiting

There is no public access to the summit, though a public footpath contours the hill at half-height on its northwestern side, and an unmetalled public road passes through the col known as Bwlch y Gors immediately to its west. The Beacons Way descends this track northwards towards Y Garn Goch en route for Llangadog.
