Llyn y Fan Fach, Brecon Beacons - 17 June 2013

Starting from the parking location to the east of Llanddeusant the route heads south to the lake (reservoir) of Llyn y Fan Fach. From the head of the lake the route follows the gentle slope west up to the ridge. From here the route is self evident. Following the ridge of Bannau Sir Gaer to Picws Du, 749m and then onto Fan Foel, 781m before, on this occasion (due to limited visibility) the route drops down to the north and returns back via the lower path with the impressive flanks above.

Must Mention: A big thank you to the honest person who handed in my mislaid video equipment to Hay on Wye police station back in July. This trip is dedicated to you!
