The highest peak in the Bannau Brycheiniog (Brecon Beacons)
This challenging, lesser-travelled route from Modrydd offers a quieter, more scenic ascent to Pen y Fan than the far more commonly used, over populated tourist path.
Starting near the Glyn Tarell area, the path climbs steeply along the ridge towards Pen Milan. We take in the extra summit plateau of Corn Du, before connecting to the main ridge, providing dramatic views of the Central Beacons.
This route offers a rugged alternative to the busy "motorway" paths, taking in sweeping views of the north-facing Cwms before joining the main ridge. A far more spectacular way to truly experience the Bannau Brycheiniog (Brecon Beacons).
We make a scenic descent past the glacial lake, Llyn Cwm Llwch, returning via the quiet valley floor.
*When you arrive, please assemble with the Get Outdoors team at the far end of the car park and check-in again at the finish. The group will be led all the way, but we would like to make sure everyone gets home safely.
** Please take a comfort break on the way; no toilets in the car park or on the walk.
Free parking, but we need to arrive early to secure parking spaces.

If you have not already (or if circumstances have changed), please complete the participant health & safety form at this link, so we know how best to look after you.
