Sun 23 Jan 2011.....Cefen Cul 740m(2,427ft)

Brecon Beacons in Wales.....

GS, KL, and "the boys"

GS, KL, "the boys", and I started from the lower car park south-east of the Storey Arms Centre and headed out of the south-side of the car park avoiding the normal tourist route.

Crossing the stream at Pont ar Daf we headed east up Tyle Brith onto Craig y Byllfa; through Craig Gwaun Taf up to Cefen Cul; and continued down Graig Fan Ddu  until the wier on the Upper Neuadd Reservoir was due east. We returned back to the car park over Cefen Cul but down the Beacons Way track (the tourist route) at dusk. Around 3miles.

The route was desolate with the odd hiker at a distance and also a group young recruits on the Long Drag proving their ability and worthiness to serve queen and country in the highest order.

A good 4 hour "slow" hike with fantastic views on route. All enjoyed the excursion and there were no issues this time..........Great!!!!
