Beacons day walk

A friend found he had a weekend free of domestic ties so he and I headed for the Brecon Beacons on Saturday for just a day walking. We parked the car in the Blaen-y-Glyn car park at GR550175 and headed up along Craig y Fan Ddu to the junction of paths above Cwm Cwareli and then to Fan y Big, Cribyn and Pen y Fan. Lovely clear views. Down then above and to the west of Upper Neuadd Reservoir and down a very steep rock strewn path to Lower Neuadd Reservoir. The route back to the car park was by the edge of Taf Fechan Forest and then a short stretch of road and by then it was getting dark. An exhilarating day.
